    Hey all, I searched but couldn't find what you all did to stop your model A windshield from blowing inwards at top speed. Help is appreciated

  3. I turned a couple of pins out of 1/4 hex SS. I threaded one end 10-32 and the other was turned down to 3/16 dia with a radiused end. I drilled and tapped the stanchions and screwed the pin stops in with Loctite. They worked at 120+ on Fontana Speedway!

    You can see one of the pins at the bottom of the left stanchion in this photo.

    Orignal Ford part's will solve your prolblems,
