Avanti windshield

[garyc]

It is said Sherwood wanted more headroom in the Avanti. Is it correct to say it was achieved buy changing the pitch of the windshield thus raising the roof? I would guess the frame was originally that of previous production year Hawks. Is the angle of the windshield the same or different between the Avanti and Hawk?

Well this is a question that's never been asked before!!... On New Years Day I'll make it a point to measure the windshield angle on my Speedster (Hawk), and the Avanti to see...... If I had to guess I'd say the Avanti may have a steeper windshield angle.

The Hawk/coupes, are much more laid rearward than the Avanti's.
