'48 F1 windshield, flat or curved?

Is the windshield flat or curved? The cab I have doesn't have the glass in it, and looks like flat would work?

Thanks.

They're flat - and use safety-sheet glass. However the bottom inside radius is tough to cut. I had a local auto glass shop make mine. The owner was interested in using the job to teach some of the new guys how to make that cut.

Thanks, that helps. I noticed the bottom and top curve too.

I'm going to have some fun with this cab, once I get started I'll post up some pic's.
