34 Windsheild seal

I ordered a windshield seal from Bob Drake. I can't figure out how you install this thing. It don't look anything like I thought it would. Any help on this one.
Would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

1st thing is I would contact Drake to get directions. Then it may be one of those that get installed with a kit that has a string. The glass is set in the rubber and a string is put between the rubber seal and windshield opening. Then as you pull the string out , it sets the rubber seal in the opening. I
ve seen it done but never tried it.

I put a windshield gasket on my 34 Ford. Biggest pain in the ars that I've ever done. Took me several times and the better part of the day to put it in. THe good news was.... I had the old windshield and gasket as a reference. If it were not for that... it might not ever have gotten done.

These can be an exercise in frustration. Sometimes we find tools in unexpected places. My bride does craft stuff, quilts, paint art, collages, stuff like that. One day I see this neat looking stick like thing in her kit, it's called a folding bone. Nice rigid plastic with smooth edges, kinda pointy at one end, more rounded at the other, pic below. (yeah, I've got one of those "official" windshield, nylon type too, but this worked better and less prone to damaging the rubber) It worked great on the one I did in one of my '36s. You basically have to push one edge into the groove, then roll and tuck the other in. Once you get it started you set up a rhythm and it goes fairly easily. Lubricate with liquid dish soap or silicone. Keep an eye on location from time to time so as to not bunch it up or stretch it too much and end up with a problem at the end of the channel when you make the turn.

liquid soap is ok, but try usin dielectric grease.
Much easier with it.

OK I called Bob Drake and they got me straightend out. Turns out the windsheild frame
seal. Is the seal that goes between the body and the windsheild frame. The windsheild seal is a tape that comes in different thicknesses. It goes in front and in back of the windsheild. The thickness depends on how thick your glass is.
