Great job on your videos. I really appreciate your perspectives and your delivery. Very informative and extremely helpful! Awesome work.

Great video. I use Tire dressing to slide the bottom rubber seal on. Don't forget to pop revit the chrome cap that holds the door seal first before installing the windshild. Great team work. My wife also assists and supervises in all the MGB restoration projects. 😁

Thank you for the video - extremely helpful. I'm restoring a 1977 B also. I'm at the point of reinstalling the windshield after painting. Your video just made my life a whole lot easier. Now I'm going to try to find more of your videos, I did subscribe so they should be easy to find. Nice paint job by the way. Thanks again.

Thanks for a very informative tutorial. I'm working on this stage of the restoration now and you have provided valuable information.

John twist said to put some silicone under the bottom seal where lt goes over the fender bead. Thanks for taking the time to make this video. Not easy to do when you are trying not to scratch your nice paint job. Be well and happy holidays.

That's bad advice as I believe silicone leeches into the paint and can be a nightmare when it comes to a respray

Put a sting in the rubber flap, once the screen is sitting on the body pull the string out and that pulls the flap out.

Little tip for that bottom rubber fitment. Soap/ water the channel and the rubber insert channel then slide it in from one end. Took me 5 minutes to complete it.

Great video! I wish you had made that a year earlier. I went through it myself. Well done! Thank you

Nice job I just picked up a little 67

[@coastwisenewzealand670]

[@wallisparnell4464]

Nice job editing and presentation.

[@stuwhite2337]

Just trying to do this on my B. It's a hell of a job in the winter int he UK! I'll be making up some brackets to fasten to the screen supports where the screws go in to enable me to use some force to pull it down as it's impossible at the moment.

It will definitely leak, every MGB does it’s impossible to get a water tight seal . I’ve owned many believe me 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

[@johnmurray3324]

Its drip check sealer on the rubber to metal

[@AlexPlatacis]

Can you clarify? You lost me there...

[@johnmurray3324]

Its like a too that solidifies but never hardens British Leyland loved it so did ford at Dagenham

Not very often that I comment, but you just have tell what your going to do, DO IT, then summarize. It was painful listening to you to the point of stopping just before 5 minutes into the vid.

[@AlexPlatacis]

@DanMedina-gm1fz thanks for the constructive criticism. I have been adjusting my format since this video. I typically now just speed up the video or summarize as you suggested. In this video I believe I was more trying to show my wife helping in the garage. But thanks for taking the time to help out. It does help me get better. Hope you can find newer videos on the channel that help your projects

[@robingibson7503]

Good example, but I get sea sick with the video bouncing around~~~~

[@AlexPlatacis]

I get you. Not a production, just trying to share the experiance. Hard to do with one hand sometimes.
