We are in the process of restoring a 69 Ford Torino Cobra. Long story short we started the project to help a friend restore it for his parents 7 years ago and he has since passed away and we are trying to finish the car.
 
My question is how do you install the pillar moulding that runs on the inside of the windshield I have no holes for screws or brackets so wasn't sure  if we just glue them in or what and just wanted to be sure before we screw something up.
 
Thanks
Nikki

boy, i don't know? i'm not real familiar with the early cars, the 72-79 cars have a screw in the center and are held by the dash pad at the bottom and an overlapping metal piece across the inside of the windshield. but i don't see a screw hole in your pic of the new pad!  I'm not sure??? do you have the old original to compare? i had the same issue with those "A" pillar pieces on my vette i put a correct screw in the center of them, not that i'm suggesting you do that!
 maybe someone else here knows???
