Was early style same as MB?  If so, I have outer and inner, plus a new skin for bottom of outer.

inner is the same...

outer is the same, except it has additional height added to it, the panels are different because of the height addition..

thanks low :) I was thinking early 2a ('45) had MB windshield. I know '46 had a higher bottom. I sold every 2a inner windshield at Marengo this past weekend. The MB inner has a handle, no locking mechanism. I think I may have a decent 2a outer and the MB inner can be changed to a locking handle. I think I even have that too.

the MB inner will not interchange with a 2A outer, without modification....  the pivoting arms on a 2A W/S frame are different than those on an MB...

yes I forgot about that. So you change the handle to the locking swivel and the brackets to accommodate the Lilly pops. I have both :) can you think of anything else ?

I might just as well throw in the rag and take it to MV show for WW2 :)

Oh, our friend JB got one of the 2a inners at Marengo :). Plus I bought two 10 tooth starter dendixs. My starter got destroyed in flood of June 2016.
