Default 1938 Woody Windshield Install

Does anyone have any tips on the windshield installation for a Woody? The car came without a windshield. I've purchased a pattern and am having the glass cut. I have a Carpenter seal set.
Does the glass get installed from the inside, and is it held in place by the garnish? I don't see a lip on the rubber seal to attach the outside chrome trim. How does it get installed?
Is there a site I can use for instructions? I haven't found anything on a Forum search yet for a '38 Woody.

Cheers, Al

The seal goes around each glass pane, then yes, the glass is inserted from inside the car and held in by the garnish molding.

How does the chrome trim attach? Does it go on the body/flange?
