Thanks for the pictures.

How about the details and how you did it.

What gasket or setting tape did you use?

Did you add metal to the frame to match the size of the glass?

How involved was it really.

I looked at a 67 Chevelle at SEMA that was perfect. The glass looked like a million bucks flush, but I couldn't find the builder to ask questions.

The RING Bros were cool but they didn't like the way the mustang gasket turned out, they said they would do it different next time....

I'm sre there are alot of different ways to do this,Iknow Brian did his differently then I did.I took a peice of 1"x1/4" steel flat bar,curved it to the contour of the opening,to make up the thickness of the glass. then filled in the opening,see pics

That helps.

How much room did you leave for the thickness of the glass sealing tape (that I assume you will put down before the glass goes in).

Are you going to shade the edges of the glass black like a new car glass?
(so you can't see the mounting flange)

Hey nice work, like the firewall. I noticed in the last set of pictures you posted that you have modified the center dash for gauges. I am doing the same thing, could we see a pic of that too?
