Narrow windshield?

I have been drawing a project in my head for a few years now.
A narrow windshield (with frame would not hurt) is a stumbling block.
What cars in US have the narrowest windshields? Looking for 48 to 52 inches wide. [I have considered delivery truck and/or bus flat glass] Efficiency would be lost getting around the edges.

This group may know some I have not thought to research.

Thank you. Hogheadv2


DOT may not be crucial, Helpful, In Michigan Rain, Snow, Bugs suicide squads hit with little warning. At least one good wiper is needed.

FWD, flush front wheels, single rear, front engine, Big twin trans/w reverse added, chain to differential VW style half shafts out to front wheels. {air , horizontal spring/shock, or push-rod suspension is still on the table.

Seat are to be staggered 6-9 inches. let passengers ride a bit closer to center-line and not crowd each other,,,, conversation not be to the point of rude. Much in line with Morgan construction. wood skinned with aluminum or plastic [fiberglass].



I hope this gives you a better idea of what I'm after.

If my math is close, and I can keep it cutting air. I predict 75mph @55-60 mpg. 55-60mph 80+ mpg.... I have found a turbocharger to fit the application if needed.
