    The tinted glass with the sun shade is a nice touch. When I had my local guy cut the glass for the 2A, he didn't want to use tinted glass. I suppose he was a traditionalist, but I insisted. It was more or less like putting a chandelier in an outhouse, but what the hell.

    With your seating position, and your height, will the sun shade be in your line of vision? The shorter 2A windshields, and the seating position, the line of sight is pretty close to the top of the glass. That's why you see a lot of 2As with 3A windshield frames as an upgrade.

    I didn't even say anything to him about the tint GM he sent me that picture last night and said it is finished, I thought it came out sweet until it is in my line of vision

    I am fairly short, 5'7 or so, shrinking everyday. I stare right at the top of the glass in my 3A. We must have had short torsos in the earlier decades. Maybe that's why you always see the windshield down in old photos. Either that or everyone was tall enough to just look over the top.

    I'm trying Buddy, this lock down sure has given me a lot of time to work on it.
    Got my slave cylinder on Monday and had to fool with that making a longer push rod. Now I am trying to get the air cleaner to fit between the firewall and the EFI and still trying to use the 14" so the EFI gets enough air to breath like it should. Got a offset 14" base and cut it out and moved it even more to make it work, now I'm waiting on a flat top so the hood will close without cutting the rib out on the bottom side of the hood so it will close.
    This thing throws one hurdle after another at me.
