I'm thinking the molding on my 1965 mustang is a polished stainless steel that was reused when the windshield was out of it. I also had a 1966 porsche 911 that the windshield was knocked out of that had a polished stainless steel molding around that was damaged and had to be straightend whicth took hours and hours with a body hammer and dollies. Old chevy trucks also had a rope in seal that was typicaly reused. I get what you are saying though. I guess as long as the new windshield doesn't leak and there's no cracks I can live with it. I think the new windshield is overall slightly diff. than the old in tinting and there's a black ring all the way around the glass. Never think of aftermarket glass being diff. Makes me wonder if the strengh of glass from diff. companies is better or worse. |
