    I was wondering if you guys could help me out. My father-in-law has had this windshield frame laying around for years and would like to sell it but is not sure what it is worth. I think it is for a Model A, any suggestions? I'm not sure what it is. There is no rust and no dings in it. The hinge/winshield lock on the passenger side is a little bent but very easy to fix.

    So my question is...... what is it and what's it worth? Thanks guys!

    Post the measurements of length and width of short center section and wider outer section and it can be easier to determine. It looks like a model A and they usually go for about $100.00 or so. But it could be anothermake that is why the dimensions are important. Hope this helps

    Well it is not steel. Seems to be stainless steel, is not magnetic.

    The dimensions are:
    41 5/8" wide
    15" tall on the sides
    13" tall in the center

    So this being stainless, is it aftermarket then? Stock wasn't stainless, was it?
