Windshield gap / pre-paint
So I’m in the middle of doing bodywork on the ‘33 and have been working on my windshield frame. (Hard top) Thankfully you guys advised me to make sure the glass fit before I painted the car. Like most everything else on this body, it wasn’t even close to fitting. I’ve ground and sanded the frame out enough that the window glass fits in the hole but my question is how much do y’all think I need to allow for a proper gap? I’m assuming when it’s “glued” in that the glass is supposed to be flush with the fiberglass. I’d hate to find out after primer/paint that I worked on it for hours and hours but still didn’t take enough off. All the other panel gaps I’m setting at 1/4” prior to primer. I’m not a body man by any means so I’d really appreciate some advice from someone that has done this already. Thanks.
