I recently bought this '66 CJ5. I'm trying to understand how the windshield folds down. Attached are photos of the hood and the windshield. There is a latch at the top center of the windshield that looks like it should hook onto a footman loop on the hood. The two U bolts on the hood are not in line with the latch and the footman loop is not in the right place either. Does anyone know if this latch is meant to line up with something on the hood? If not, what holds the windshield when it's down? Thanks!
