    28-29 Windshield Hinge

    Does anyone still have a link to Marco's page showing the distance from the end of the upper hinge and the notch for the windshield wiper? Thought I had it bookmarked, but since I have not looked at it for quite some time it may have gotten punted from the list. Brought home 2 of them today and need to correctly ID. Thanks Rod

    You wana look waaay far up da road and plan yer route because the brakes are far more of a suggestion than a command!

      Thanks, already been there and looked. Did not see any link to that page. May have a hard copy somewhere. Rod

    Hinge for what body style?
    I posted a blueprint for my 28 Phaeton showing all the top holes and dimensions to the edge.

        Thanks. By upper hinge I was meaning the header finish panel, but think I can figure it out from here. Rod

        FYI - The upper windshield hinge for the 82-A cab had two designs. See photos - the early design measures 14" and the common design is 12-3/4".

          Neil, how late was the notch at 14" used? Also any comment on the design change for the shape of the ends? Seems the shape of the end that was on my 29 130-A Deluxe Delivery is the same as as the early 82- A That has the notch at 14". Thanks Rod

        Seems one is 14", the other is 12 3/4" as is the one from my delivery (bottom one in pic's). Curious about the differences in the ends. If anyone has anything to add. Thanks Rod
