I have a Monogram '55 Chev convertible.  The windshield is bent over and is broken in the middle.  It's an original kit.  Just wondering the best way to straighten

A photo would help here, if you can post one. I fixed a windshield frame on a '59 Edsel that had the same issue by first drilling tiny vertical holes down through the frame into the A-pillars, then cutting the top halves of the frame off of the A-pillars with a photoetch saw, drilling holes in either side of the break to insert a pin, and VERY carefully gluing it back together on a flat surface. Once that was dry I inserted pins in the holes in the A-pillars and glued the repaired top section over the pins and onto the pillars. That was the only way I could think of to fix it and get rid of the sag in the middle.

Good luck.
