1941 Chrysler Windsor Windscreen Thickness
Scottish 41 Windsor replied to Scottish 41 Windsor's topic in P15-D24 Forum
Yeah my quarter light windows on front doors have a very firm rubber seal which makes it difficult to get a good seal. ill also need to strip out the rear wind down windows and see what the lower level outer scraper setup is, as one side is currently missing 🤦♂️ -

Cheers gents…..do either of you know if Clesters seals are endless (bonded ends) or just lengths of profile. The Steele windscreen one is one piece bonded with the centre bar seal bonded in. quite a few guys seem to rate this seal. -
1941 Chrysler Windsor Windscreen Thickness

That’s great news, the place cuts windscreens from laminate for classic cars, they have said the thinnest they do is 6.4mm. I’m buying a set of Steele rubbers, front and back from the USA, so wanted to make sure this glass would fit as my current screens are starting to delaminate in the centre post area. Thank you very much for your detailed response, most appreciated 👍 -

Good evening all, does anyone have a 1941 (ish) Chrysler (Windsor) or similar era windscreen that they can measure the thickness of please? I need some new glass and there’s a place locally who can cut me new screens from 6.4mm glass. I just need to know if this is in the ballpark 👍

Every days a school day, took some digging to get to the bottom of it. All comments and assistance were very helpful, great that you are all so happy to give your time and knowledge to assist….thank you 👍
-
That’s perfect thank you, I’m measuring a 16mm gap approx. Can you confirm the height difference between the 2 please? I want to make sure I get the spacer size bang on, as finding one of these will be nigh on impossible. My front and rear are exactly the same 🤦♂️

Stunning work, looks perfect…..put me down for at least a glove box lid and Speedo surround. Or a full set for a club coupe 😍

That’s totally bizarre, I found this self same car advert some 15mins ago. i can see from the pics that the legs on the front bracket are twice as long as mine. mine looks like the front bracket is the same as the rear one, which looks to be incorrect. i will fashion up a spacer whilst I try to source the correct bracket….many thanks for taking the time to help me out, it is very appreciated 👍
-
Cheers for that, I had a look but couldn’t see the area I was looking at
-
Hi there, some reference photos would be most useful, as either my bracket is too short or it needs a spacer machined.

Hi there, thanks for the reply. The front and rear brackets are already fitted, the rear is bolted down to the firewall but the front one is hanging in mid air, with a decent gap to the panel below…..wondering if there should be a spacer in there.
