1929 CCPU/AA truck windshield frames

[wrndln]

There are several of us 29 CCPU owners (Dan Partain, Dudley Moordigian, a fellow in our local Twin Cities model A club and me) that are trying to figure out what the correct windshield type should be for April 29 and mid 29 pickup windshield frames. Our CCPU's have been messed with over the years, so we are not sure if the windshield frames on our pickups are correct. All of us know that 1928 CCPU windshield frames have a narrow, straight cut wind deflector on them. See first picture. Our concern is what the correct windshield frames should be used in April 1929 and mid 1929. As many of you know, passenger cars in 1929 had wider, single angled end on their wind deflector windshield frames. See second picture, lower windshield frame. Also, as many of you probably know, commercial vehicles got the left over parts from passenger cars that were compatible when Ford moved to the next years production. I believe other than the manual wiper tube on the top piece, the lower piece of passenger car and CCPU's are the same. If someone knows what type windshields were used and what dates they were used, we would appreciate you posting your information here. Hopefully some 29 CCPU or AA truck owners could look at their windshields and post the information. A couple of us suspect that the 1928 narrow, square end windshield frames were used well into 1929, but we have no solid evidence of that. Any help would be appreciated.

My CCPU with a date stamping of 2/12/29 has the early straight cut wind deflector like your first picture. I can't guarantee it is original, but indications are that it likely is.
