A windshield support is formed as a cantilever-like or overhang support including a bend portion 16, a box portion and a flange portion 20 which are formed continuously in that order. The bend portion 16 is extended from an instrument panel upper portion 12 and has a substantially V-shaped cross section. The box portion 18 has a hollow rectangular cross section and is sufficiently disposed away from the instrument panel upper portion 12. The flange portion 20 receives a front window glass 15. A recessed portion 12a is provided at the instrument panel upper portion 12 for receiving a lower portion 18a of the box portion 18 when the bend portion 16 has to be bent by virtue of an external force applied to the windshield.
