The first car I did in 1981 I had to make my own windshield frame I could get the glass but I could not get the frame at that time or didn't have a connection to get it can't remember anyway I used a piece of brass bar stock then machine it on one side for the glass and groove on the other side for the top made the side post out of quarter inch brass then formed it in a fixture.
Then had a chrome plated.
And I was real happy when I could start buying the windshields frames.
Then I found an outfit that could make the extrusion for me but by then I was working for Shelby and they didn't want to pay that for 2000 pounds of extrusion
Which was a minimum order and it would've made A lot of windshield frames!
This is from my iPhone so please excuse if I have any mistakes
