New glass for 1913?
Any advice on where to get new windshield glass for a 1913? Every place I go to wants a template, none exists to my knowledge and I do not have any original glass to use.

Take your windshield frame to a glass shop that has been in business for a long and have them install glass--safety plate, no trademarks showing. I have done it many times, no patterns needed.

The Ford glass book starts with 1915, so Jack's advice is best.
The inevitable often happens.
