Hi John!
Can I ask you to give me an idea of the actual frame sectional size, please - ie: when you look at the frame from the side, how wide is it, and how deep is the return towards the glass? Blimey, I'm confusing myself here... What I mean is, if you were to cut through your frame uprights, what would the outside dimensions of the section (roughly) be ?! I'm worried about going for something too hefty-looking.
Honestly, no need to actually cut your frame...
Many thanks.
Sorry Donnie, but I only looked at the most recent threads and hadn't realised you'd asked another question.
My chrome over brass windscreen channel outer section dimensions are 20mm x 15mm thick.
The profile is rather like an I-Beam where the internal recess accepts the glass (or outer uprights or hood or rubber under.)
You owe me £1200 quid as I read the bit about not hacksawing the metalwork too late.
Have fun, as stuff you do yourself is so much more rewarding than buying ready made.
G-g-g-gulp! Ch-ch-ch-cheque is in the post.
Many thanks - a much more slender profile than I'd imagined. I'd better not over-do mine then!
As you say, DIY-ing is very rewarding; the fact that the WHOLE car cost me just £1200 is another reason
