In the 70's the coaches were 96" wide. In 1986 Newell started building the coaches 102" wide. For a few years, they used the same windshield as the prior models but spliced in a 6" wide glass strip in the center. They were using Chevy Astro 95 truck windshields at that time and the 6" center section was an 'inside cut' from a complete left or right windshield. The 90's era windshields are full 53" width each.
