[Pat's Ride]

Hello all, I recently purchased a 1938 that was restored/built in 2006. I asked the owner about the crank out windshield and was told he opened it a couple of times but didn't like to do so because it was hard to get it sealed well afterwards.

So my question is, how much force does the handle take to turn? I've tried turning it while pushing out on the WS at the bottom and it won't budge.

I really don't want to break anything but would like to have the option.

Thanks, Pat
