    Glass body install is ideal for the glue in method, and it can be done in an original that way, though some don't care for the comparative "permanence" of it.

    So here is a very close approximation of what Ford used: https://www.bobdrake.com/FordItem.as...0-52163715e995

    As for the garnish attachment, originally the car would have had a wood frame (part of the inner structure) around it. Screws through the molding into the wood. Here's a pic of when I started replacing the wood in my '32 (similar to the '33/4) to give you an idea of what is would look like.

    It's much easier to promise someone a "free" ride on the wagon than to urge them to pull it.

    Luck occurs when preparation and opportunity converge.
