30-31 Open Car lower Windshield Stanchions
Does anyone have experience using repro lower windshield stanchions for a 30-31 open car? Is there only one manufacturer? How do they fit? It seems that originals are hard to come by. I have more than one set of brass ones that have been broken and welded. I would like to use steel ones if they can be easily made to fit accurately. I appreciate comments.

There were brass ones but the later ones are steel. Steel ones more easily restored IMHO
The brass ones were earlier, that's why they are likely on a 30 car. |

I got one new one(repo) and one original from Bert's coming. I will see how the repo fits. Berts did not have both originals. I have two sets of the brass ones and all are welded where they broke.
