help installing v-bent windshield in 39 chevy

as you guys know, just finished painting the body on my 39 chevy coupe, & went to install the windshield a V-bent style, has anyone out there installed one in a 39 chevy? my problem is after putting on the gasket, set the glass on the track on the pass side (installing the glass from inside the car) but when I go to push try an push the glass in on the driver side, it hits the inside edge of the "A" piller on the drivers side!!!the windshield looks like it is 1/4 to long??. the "A" pillars on a coupe are kind of triangle shaped so at the front inside edge of the "A" piller are closer together from side-to-side. as soon as you pass the edge of the "A" they get farther apart & the windshield would have no problem getting installed. I don't want to try & bend the windshield to try and get past the tight area. any thoughts?? I hope I made sense.
I did have a glass guy try to install it, but he couldn.t. . the glass is correct, checked with auto city glass & they said it was the right glass for my car. has anyone had problems with windshields from them ?

Install it from the outside??

willowbilly, is that a suggestion? or from expierence with the v bent windshield?
trying to installing it from the outside the windshield gasket is not made to install that way .the moulding "lip" on the gasket is a 1/2" wide, no way to get it to flip over the glass channel using a rope, or aleast that it what steele company told (they made the windshield gasket)

Man!!!! these windshields are the biggest bitch to install, bought a v-bent windshield for my 39 chevy coupefrom auto city classic, called about it not fitting, they didn't have a clue on how to install the windshield. I finally had to have it ground down 1/4" total on the sides to get it come close to fitting, then after getting it in , the bend in the lower end of the winshield is not even close to the factory pinch weld bend , so the gasket is puckering bad there. over all, I don't think itthat good of a fit & auto city classic won't stand behind there windshields & would not reccomend it to anyone.
any else installed one of these v-bent windshields in a 37-39 chevy ??what was your expierence?& the fit?

It may be a diffrent company but call Chevsofthe40s and ask them. they will be able to tell you what is what. they do sell the V bent windshields
