All you need Marty is the windshield from a later model, the body tub is
pretty much the same, I have a soft top and windshield frame from a 76 or
newer on my 74 model CJ5, it all fitted fine, you will need new hinges to go
with the later model windshield frame.

not?

windshields now the newer Civilian Jeeps loose head room:

NO. The CJ5 got wider in 1976.
