Re: Does anyone fold their windshield down?
It could be dane jus if the wind got under it and you reached up and caught it. This happened to me with a Jeep and it broke an otherwise good windshield. It wouldn't have been so bad if it hadn't been my dads jeep. This was many years ago but I never forgot it.

Re: Does anyone fold their windshield down?
I have a true contemporary story about this subject. Back in the 1920s Dad had an Auburn with a folding windshield. He was sailing around the city with the windshield folded down and a bug flew into his ear. He went ballistic and pulled over and saw a woman in her yard and asked her if she could help get it out. She thought he was a nutcase and blew him off.

Re: Does anyone fold their windshield down?
In California it is against the law for a jeep to drive on the road with the windshield down as it was never designed to do that....but the model A was designed to be driven on the road with the windshield down so it is legal to do it..... but be ready to argue with a cop as most of them don't understand the difference between a jeep and a vintage car..
I drive with the windshield down on warm days when I enjoy the breeze,,,not real fun at higher speeds .....yes you must wear eye protection...Red Barron style. Joel Chester Ca. |

Re: Does anyone fold their windshield down?
The first year I had the speedster I didn't have windshields. Not much fun at 40+ mph. It didn't take long until I added these:

Drove my speedster for a while with no windshield, which is fun, but decided it looked better with a windshield in place.
