1936 cabriolet windshield frame
When I took apart my windshield frame I had to drill out the screws.
I need a replace brackets that slide into the frame so that it can be screwed together. I’m not sure what they are called. Does anyone no where I can find them.thanks, Tony. |

They are like 5/16" square bars about 2" long that can be made or Trautwein in NY who makes the repos might have them.Bob Drake has the little screws for $4 a set.Part number 3108A.

Re: 1936 cabriolet windshield frame
Don't know if I ever have seen any for sale. If the original piece is beyond repair; I make the frame pieces out of key stock and drill and tap to match the frame.
Now I don't know how a cab frame differs from a closed car frame; on the closed car frame, there is a slight sideways bend to the splice bars and the screws have a special head, be aware that the repop frame screws may be too long and will need to be shortened slightly. |
