I've used Vintique '32 Roadster-Phaeton windshield frames chopped and stock. They work well. The ones I got were not plated. The FOGGER
I've bought several from Baxter Ford Parts In Lawrence KS. Don't know who the manufacture is but they have been top quality.
FYI the inexpensive frame are made in Taiwan, other is USA, slight difference in price may be due to vendors purchasing unplated frames and having the local plating shop do the work. Pricing then is a comparison of the quality of the plating.
Trautwein stuff is NICE ... and only a little bit more. His windshield frames are some of the BEST reproduction pieces I have seen
So...........where does a guy go to buy a 3" chopped windshield frame for A '32 roadster" I know that 2" is traditional but I want a 3". Frank
Who makes a duvall or hallock style windshield for the 32 roadsters??? Besides Speedway. I wonder if the sellers 30-31 style will fit if modified?? Pete-
As I stated above, I've purchased 2 '32 Ford windshield frames from Vintique. Call Derek at C W Moss for conformation. I personally picked them up at the Orange, Ca. store. Both came in a Vintique box. GFY, The FOGGER
Thanks for all the information. The Frame will be for a "for sale" car, so it doesn't has to be perfect.
I soon will have a 2 1/2'' chop for sale. I'm in search of a stock height windshield. 713-417-5594, marty
