Re: Correct Windshield Data for 1960 1002
Great info. So for clarity, I have it correct ,except I need to get rid of the entire bottom line of text? Would you mind if I passed the pictures you just sent, so that he can get the text fonts? I will not pass them along unless and until you give me the OK to send them. I see this guy is in the truck. Is there a way you could measure to the bottom of my new bottom row, from the bottom of the windshield. Also from the left edge of the "S" in Safety, to the left edge of glass. I assume the text is level with ground if truck is at factory curb height, parked on level ground, which mine is. Please verify that this is correct.
Have you seen enough of these to know if the text is always placed exactly in the same relative place, or is there a human element to there placement, in your opinion. I assume that a person applied a template based on some guide points, and then did what they did to get the text etched into the glass. Any idea if these were hand etched or machine etched somehow?
Again, thanks for all the help. Much of this information I simply have not been able to glean elsewhere, so it helps me a lot. Greg Mead
