Larry,
Saving the windshield rubber is the least of your worries. You don't want to save it 
but want a new one and trying to get out the windshield without cutting the rubber is 
greatly risking cracking your windshield. I agree with John. I have been restoring my 
$75 '74 Spit for four years. Even without taking as much leisure time to restore it 
could not have been done in two months. Unless you want to do a complete body off 
restore, I would with the two months - 1. repair the floor pan, 2. asses the trany 
problem then pull the engine/trans and repair the trans, replace the clutch 
components, 3. Repair any other mechanical components. If you get that done within the 
first week then move on to the rest of the restoration.
If you have storage after the two months and want a complete restore - then pull the 
body off and put it on a rolling stand, get back to it later, strip the frame, sand 
blast the frame and all the suspension and steering components and paint them. Spend 
the winter putting the frame back together, engine rebuild?, then get started on the 
body. Enjoy and keep us updated.
