To remove the windshield, you've got all the trim off already. Just cut the
rubber on the inside lip all the way around then push the windshield out to
the front. You can re-use the glass (with a new gasket of course), but you'd
be pleasantly surprised how inexpensive new flat glass is from a local glass
shop. I had both windshield halves, back glass, and one door glass for around
$150.
Good luck.

<< I'd also like to remove the 2-piece windshield (saving the glass in the
process) so that I can eventually paint the areas under the seal, as well as
fix any potential rust situation. I've got the inside surround strips
removed, as well as the outside aluminum center strip. Where do I go from
there? Does the center bar on the inside get removed before the glass comes
out, it seems like it might be tacked in. I'm trying to avoid using the
5-lb hammer method. =8^)
Thanks as always for the great help from the group.
