Anyone know what angle the windscreen is on a soft top sierra?

I am making a snorkel, and need a custom bend, unless it is 45 degrees.

Just measured mine (off the car) and it's exactly 60 Degree's measured off the line of the guard to screen angle unless my protractor is lying :D

So I need to order a 30 degree bend then for the bottom, and a 30 degree for the top (for the ram head to sit on), correct?

Found the best site ever!

No, you need a 60˚ bend at the bottom to bring the horizontal pipe up to the windscreen angle and a 30˚ bend at the top to bring the ram up to vertical.
