Good job Dave, ready for the next 75 years of service. 💯🆒👍

Another great video Dave! Now I know what the rope does! Been wondering for a long time! And thanks for letting us know about the better gasket, sometimes spending the extra cash is definitely worth it! You have me thinking about replacing my 75 year old windshield now, with the yellowing and delamination, now I know what to do if I decide to! God bless and be well!

My professional installers, with that toyota FJ, complained about the gasket falling off, being too soft, and with 2 of them fighting with it, they broke the 50 year old windsheild. While they were fighting, I found a Toyota OEM gasket and ordered it. The third install day went smooth. Your advice is sound, and, you are lucky. Thanks again Dave.

Awesome Dave, glad you got your windshield installed, now we can go for a clearly different view of the country side, I would keep part two , you can always go to the description and edit if you wanted but the way I look at it is it’s real life and in the end it turned out great, ( hey Steve ) another great Saturday morning spent with a cup of coffee and my buddy Dave😀😀

Thanks for another , Brother !

The next big rain storm you'll have to take us out on a road trip and leak ck it... It amazed me that u got it in by yourself... If I tried it by myself, the windshield would have been in more pieces than the seal.. Dave thx for bringing us along and sharing that info.. Take care my friend and God Bless...

Glad to see the windshield go in. No need to worry about that project anymore -- done deal. Thanks a lot for the gasket reveal. My first thought was Steele but they are bit pricey, so I was hoping for a good work with the one you bought. I'm glad you got this video out before I had to make a purchase for mine. Semper Fi.

hi Dave.. if you get to see or read my post i have a question. i just changed my wheel cylinders on my 41 chevy. i blead the system but when i took it for a test drive.. it pulls to the right when i break. watching this video makes me feel i need a better adjustment on the shoes?

Thank you for sharing your knowledge. I have owned my 1950 Chevy 3100 for 46 years.

Nice Video Dave! I changed a windshield in my buddies 51 Chev and an extra set of hands is beneficial.

Hey Dave, been watching ya videos on the 49 gmc, and would really like to know what year, make and model car those tan seats came out of that you put in your 49? Would like to find me a set to put in mine! Thanks bud!

Thx again for the info,, I ordered 2 brackets (1 each side)

Would like the name of bracket used for gmc side mount bracket, plus anything else that would be needed to make it work on my Chevy truck,,, thx

I was thinking that a suction cup dent puller on the inside of the windshield pulling on that while you pull the string might help

Thanks for another , Brother !

Good video Dave, I’m glad it’s at least a three parter, something to look forward to, I think I know why the pumpkins are doing good, something so trying to call you back to the pumpkin patch, lol, catch you on the next one O’l buddy😀😀

Agree on the smaller rope, just did mine and the smaller rope worked great. I also didn't use any sealant, but I live in one of the driest places in America. One other tip I stole from another video is to put two screw drivers from the outside through the center divider to help align and hold it in place while you are pulling out the rope.

Thanks for the two prep videos for the windshield install. I'll anxiously await the next one. I've seen some folks do a one man install but I feel more relaxed with a helper. Hopefully two will be better than one to cut down on accidents & mistakes. I'm hoping to do a windshield install on my 1940 Chevy sometime next year so this is helpful. Liked the story about the grandkids. I had some experiences with my son & now my grandson with the video game stuff -- it seems almost like an addiction. Reflecting on some of that stuff does bring a few chuckles. I'm curious to see how well the JB Weld stuff turns out. I was thinking of using it on similar situations as yours but on other parts of the car. Take care, try to stay cool, & by all means ... pray for rain!

Thank you for your help i am about to install a bypass oil filter on my 53 Belair and i just wasn't to clear on the installation now i know thanks to you great job thanks again.

Hey Dave , decided to get warmed up for the real show, lol, catch you in the morning 😀😀

Great video Dave. Good luck with that glass installation and I will be looking forward to the next one.

Would it help to warm the gasket before installing?

Nice job getting everything ready Dave, there's a reason they call a piece of glass a PANE or is it PAIN? 😂 Those gaskets can be tricky for sure, but looks like you have it under control! Looking forward to seeing what the rope is for, thanks for bringing us along, until next time, God bless and stay cool!

What's in the rust reformer that does that is Phosphoric Acid. You can buy it pure in an auto paint store. It turns Iron Oxide into Iron phosphate, which is a hard paintable coating.

I'm having issues watching this video. I just finished a full assembly of a 5 year project FJ40. I had to assemble his puzzle. When it came to glass, we had all old glass but immediately found that GLASS SHOPS wouldn't work on any thing that had a conventional gasket. Now, I guess they glue it and drop it in place. It took a while to find someone who was willing, as they do not train techs in "old" windshields. The kids don't want to learn. Well, we got the back 5 windows in, but they broke the windsheild. It took two more visits and new OEM gasket to get a new piece of glass installed. Oh my. I guess I have a little shell shock. Mechanics PTSD? I D K.

Great video Dave, I used that same windshield gasket on my 51 GMC, It was terrible, ended up breaking one of the windshields, when I got the SoftSeal gasket that was 4 times the price the windshield was installed in 15 minutes. I bought a lot of parts thru that Company, some ok and others real junky. Carry on Brother.

I always cringe when I see people installing glass... I guess I've seen too many videos..lol.. Dave good luck with your glass installation... Funny story about the grandkids.. They can get upset over the craziest stuff... Dave, you take care my friend and as always, God Bless...

Wolf-man: I know this is a 2 year old vid and only 186 thumbs up? WTH. It shows how little core knowledge most have of manifold vs ported vacuum advance. This is GREAT information budroe. Two questions tho if you're still reading comments. My 46 Chevy PU restomod is SBC 283 powered. Like you I don't care about burn outs . . . (most of the time ;-) Besides small tube headers and the too big Carter AFB carb its a stock engine with TH350 tranny. Vacuum advance on ported. Only had this setup for a few months. Hesitation/bog coming off idle circuit driving me crazy. Going to try manifold vacuum to see if it does anything. 1) No CAT or pump, only PVC funneled back to carb. Anything else to "de-smog"? 2) I'm considering simply switching the vaccum from ported to manifold and doing nothing else just to see if that 283 likes it. Not changing any timing at all. Am I exposing my babied 283 to any possible issues/damage. Can hardly believe only 186 likes is 2 years. That's how indoctrinated most are today abut ported vacuum advance. KUDOs one old guy to another.

I have a 51 chevy truck. I can get a chevy 250 with turbo 350. Can the turbo 350 fit without cutting floor up?

Awesome Dave, nobody was more excited to see the windshield replacement video than me, I see you found a medium size can of round-to-it on the shelf must have been tucked away up in the corner, lol, great video buddy, have a fantastic Saturday and catch you soon 😀😀

Nice video Dave, any chance you can share the bolt size, length and thread of the center divider screws?

sorry to late its a old video but this engine have oil filter??

Nice seeing you. I like seeing you working on your chevys.

You the men 👍

-- Hey, I want that tee shirt..

Hi, Dave nice to see you again

i need some good used parts got any i live in Johnson City Tn

Hi Dave! Nice job getting that old glass out, and prepping for the new, my 49 still has its original glass, a wee bit yellow and some delamination but it adds character to the old girl! Looking forward to seeing you install the new windshield, take care, God bless and try and stay cool! This summer has been a doozy! 😮

Glad to see you back ! Thanks for another , Brother !

Hi Dave ,,great to see ya again, that reminds me of my 51 GMC windshield replacement, now I gotta do the 55 Chevy Truck windshield. I remember using the old flat glass from the 51 to mix my body filler on. Great video Brother.🫵🏼💯🆒🇺🇸

Hey Dave, whazup? I never noticed that big crack in your windshield before.. Shows how observant i am.. That area around the window looked good for almost 75 years.. I think its a little hotter and humid in your area than it is over here.. It's in the low 80's here with a nice breeze.. Dave I'll be waiting on the pt 2 and I'll see you then... Take care my friend and as always, God Bless...

Dave loved your statement about our limitations , as you said we learn every day about our limitations, yes sir. I can attest to that!

Looks like someone took some shortcuts with the parking brake, by not installing them. That's what the hole in the hub is for, with the proper tools, installing the parking brakes is easy.

Just successfully replaced pump, your video was super helpful, thank you! Glad you mentioned getting 1" cap screws to accommodate the thicker flange. If my key was the same as your key, you were right - the key is rectangular not trapezoidal, and can only fit the right way into the keyway. Tip for others - when removing the OEM pump, go after the 4mm set screw in the keyway first (will need WD-40), then unscrew the pressure relief hose that feeds under the deck, and lastly the four cap screws bolting pump to engine.

What book is it that you were looking at as a reference to what you are doing? I really need to fix my pedal spring linkages on the foot controls. Thank you.

I’ve able to relieve the dent and now the old filter fits. Filter is a Fram C4P and I can find it in many suppliers but I can’t find the cover’s retention bolt seal/gasket. The bolt is a ½ inch diameter. Also I found a felt washer under the filter and it sits on top of the bottom spacer. Any ideas?

Appreciate the video(s), I own 51 Chevy with a 1954 235 engine, so this was helpful. I do have a question, my truck runs the oil pressure at 30 at all times. Is this normal? when should it be at 15? when idling or running hot?

Thank you

Nice Video, That's something I need to check on my 77''. Plus the Glass tops that I replaced my Original Tops with Is Great. We have the same color Car!!

Well another fine instructional. I have a couple of questions: One is would recommend installing a filter assembly like yours on a 1948 216ci engine which you know not it’s mileage. Two, we have what we feel it’s not high bypass external oil filter assembly (previously on a 235 engine), the filter is Fram C4P and don’t know if it’s the correct filter? Any Ideas? Three, the filter housing is dented and which we intend to repair (somehow?)
