Is there a locking strip that needs to be installed on the front windshield for a 73 Swinger? Does the gasket go on the windshield first or on the frame first? I've seen videos done both ways. Thank you!

Locking strip last. Some use a thin rope and set glass in seal then rest bottom in place and pull rope out. I had a hard time doing that so I put seal on frame then put windshield in. If I recall I used soapy water and a plastic windshield tool to lift the seal around the glass. Patience and don't tap too hard on the glass or it will crack.
No lock strip on a 73. Gasket goes on car first, then put windshield in the gasket. The gasket locks together to hold everything in. So it kinda has a lock strip built into the gasket. The rear window is not the same type gasket, it needs to be roped in.
