    Default Split Windshield?

    How many other people have a two piece windshield here? The reason I ask is because it's like every picture that I see here on the zone the trucks all have a single pane across the whole truck insted of a two piece, as mine is. I need a replacement for my passenger side because it has what looks like a large caliber bullet went through it (well that is what I like to think, it could be just from a piece of rebar or something of that nature, but that doesn't make for as an exciting story!) I'm wondering if I have a rare find here or something? Any input is appriciated

    Got pics??

    IIRC, someone here was playing with getting a deuce windshield into a 725.

    I don't have a computer at home, I just use my I-Phone to check the zone every day. The phone is way more capable of things over just any phone but it's not quite up there with a computer, so I can't post pics : ( but I can e-mail photos if you give me your address. I don't have any pics on my phone now but if your really interested in seeing my rig then I'll run down to my pops house and take some.

    Please get pictures since the M715 didn't come with anything but a single pane as far as I know. Send the to me if you want. Or just about anybody that replies to this thread.

    I would like a split fold out windshield on these hot summer days.

    The windows don't move independently from each other nor do the bottoms push out like some other older trucks. But it does fold down. My 715 is 100% stock, the only thing that I'm missing is the top to my battery box, and a pump was added for a snow plow. Other than those two things I have EVERYTHING for this thing, so I'm very highly doubtful that it was added by anyone. If it was then they did an amazing job. I'll try to get those pics to you either tomarrow or on Friday. I'm going to need an e-mail address to get them to you though, if I send them to you would you mind posting the pics on the zone for everyone to see it?

    I seem to recall seeing a 715 (maybe on ebay?) that had a two piece windshield glass in it. It had a seam in the middle made of a piece of weatherstrip. Pretty sure it was done by an individual if I remember correctly.

    If it were a deuce windshield, it would surely show signs of having been modified, and would also have opening "panes"

    Mine has a metal strip about an inch and a half wide. It's been a while since I've looked at it but I'm pretty sure that it has nice weather stripping around the glass, so if it was done by someone they really knew what they were doing.
