1972 Cadillac Coupe deVille remodel [WIP]

I've had this car in real life as my first car for a couple months, I just got it running again

I love my car, so I wanted it in-game
I don't know what to do with the windshield, if I move it down, there's a big obnoxious stray vertice that sticks up.
Even though I am experienced at remodeling, I would like to know how to fix stray vertices.
And yes, I am making slightly smaller rims for it.
I'm working hard at modeling this, I don't exactly have all the time for better pictures.
Old build:

New build, possibly final:

New details:
*EDIT#2, new video of latest basic build

Once I fix the stray vert, I will release.

so far it looks great, i don't know if this is CE only but a door would be awesome, and the windshield...i cant say it's buggy...its a bug period
the front is forged of awesome, the wheel position is perfect, the back is a lil iffy, but i would need to see a reference cuz i'm not much of a car person so i don't know what this car looks like to know if the back is right

The back is very detailed like the front. The front has a grill too, ha. This is PC only.
I am working on doors and maybe even side windows, if I can get the windshield to work right.

yeah if a working windshield is doable at all then side windows shouldn't be a problem (that is, if you can get doors working)

after looking at the reference pic, i'm noticing the headlights on yours are a bit too high, you should bring them down a bit

Awesome! Ever thinking of making a bunch of old car remodels? That may be a cool mod.

Simply Amazing.
You should model for CE.

My 3Ds just expired and the only money I have to renew it is basically for my gas-guzzling Cadilllac. So i'm sort of screwed, unless I use gmax. Which I don't exactly love.
Also, I am going to make a model pack of old cars. Stay tuned this week for the release and updates on each model.
