windshield mouldings
I was wondering if anyone out there could tell me how to remove the windshield mouldings on a 1965 F100 Custom Cab without destroying the mouldings themselves, any help would be greatly appreciated.

the glass guys use a little hooky thing to pop it out. likely if your gasket is original, it will be too brittle to do this. i got mine out with a knife, along with the windshield. new gasket is about $30 or $40.

Hi Bill, You have to have the rubber out of the truck and it comes right out. I thought you could just pull it out and ruined a piece on mine. The chrome is put in the rubber and the rubber on the glass when installing.

I sacrifice the gasket. They are usually old and ruined anyway. Careful with the glass it is extremly brittle! This would be a good time to sand and rust proof under the gasket and use new sealant. Solve a bunch of problems at one time.
