since I had some free time and this has been aggravating me for some time, keep in mind this started out as a windshield replace.

You got off easy

wanna bet, I still have to do the rear one, that gonna be a treat. did I mention it needs a frame

I think a frame swap would be easier than those channels.

I actually prefer the channels, I have a brake and shrinker stretcher, and the tig, its just really slow, but with that you have to be or it warps, im trying out some silicon bronze out instead of lead to see how it stands up before I use it on the wagon.
