Default 63 Lemans Windshield

I have the later glue in style, is the window opening the same size as the the gasket style. And does it take the same stainless trim?

Default Same size

All openings are the same size. The glass is sized to match the installation type.

So if I use the smaller windshield my stainless trim won't fit, right? I called Classic city auto glass and they have had the larger one on order for awhile so I will wait and see if they get it in.

Default Smaller windshield

The two windshields require different moldings. One uses a rubber gasket with trim used to hold the gasket and windshield in. The other uses a butyl tape and the trim is held on by clips.
