The windshield is higher, wider, outlined in chrome
and slopes rearwardly at an angle of 39° into the
Turret Top.
Drip mouldings over the windows and down the
windshield pillar are continued while a new, larger drip
shield not only prevents rain dripping into the ventilator
opening but also shields the opening from the front by
extending downward along the front edge.

grooves, widening gradually as it passes along the
length of the hood and reaches its widest dimension
along the doors. Here the moulding is plain, the
grooves recommencing at the rear of the rear doors
and tapering narrowly toward the ends.
