Thanks to this video, I used this technique a couple days ago with great success. Someone had buggered up the hinge with a hammer, trying to get it apart. I screwed it down to my workbench and used a block of wood as a softener, like you show, it worked like a champ! Thanks Bob!
This morning (before I found your video) I removed the windshield from my 1929 coupe (my first Model A). I did not know what I was doing as I could not find any information until I discovered your video series. Anyway, I removed the side screws on my visor so I could lift up the window frame about level with the hood, I then just slid the window frame to the left out of the upper hinge. It came out easy and the upper hinge is still mounted to the car. I am anxious to watch how you install new rubber to the frame with new glass. Once I assemble the window frame and new glass back together I am assuming I can slide the entire windshield back into the upper hinge. Have you ever seen anyone remove and replace a windshield this way? I subscribed and gave you a thumbs up!

heard it was possible but my frame hinges were rusted shut.
