Re: 1932 sport coupe
Don’t know for sure but those may be fabricated by Trautwein. Trautwein makes a quality frame but there may be issues with rust starting from the inside. Apparently that is caused by acid not being thoroughly flushed out during the plating process. Is there a plain steel option?

Re: 1932 sport coupe
Thanks, good question, as I understand it the sport coupes did not have a deluxe model all were standards with painted frames where as the B 400's were deluxe with plated frames; the unplated would suffice for my use, will inquire

Re: 1932 sport coupe
Talked to Mac's regarding an unplated 32 sport coupe /B400 windshield frame & they show it as discontinued, will try other sources previously mentioned on monday. Also curious as to the possible fit of a 32-33-34 p.u. or model 'A', I know the height would require a chop to fit, however has anyone attempted to do so.

Try the internet for NC Industries.
They make a B400 Windshield Frame
