    Rubber on the bottom edge of the windshield frame should keep it from popping through backwards.

    No 60 horse engines until 1937.
     
  5. Roadsters don't have side gl***, cabriolets have side gl***. @alchemy is correct no 60 horse motor until '37 and if it is the stock motor you are now learning why some of us don't use flatheads, 125 ponies is a lot of work for the money in a flathead.

    If the windshield tilts ( I don't recall on a '36 so it is if from me) you loosened the thumb screws and tilted it then tightened them back down. It was not something that you did while motoring down the road.

    You cook a turkey in a Roaster! You drive a Roadster.

    It's too late man, he already ate that roaster and did 15 minuets (that's a lotta dancin' !)

    Just busting your hump, @cajundixie!

    '36 Roadsters are as cool as it gets! If you can afford it, buy it, spend some time here and you will soon come to understand why.
