Does anyone know of a UK firm/restorer who would be able to make a new 'Troy Ventillated' windscreen frame for our 1914 Stanley? The orignal is probably beyond repair, and the frame is a non-standard section. See Pat Farrell's sketch of a similar frame, whih I've put on flickt at

Peter,

Looking at your screen I think it is a highly specialised tubular section and that you best chance is with someone in the States who is tooled up to do it.

However here are some UK suggestions.
The first two are specialists in brasswork and in the case of Wessex Workshops, windscreens and hood frames. James Pearce specialise in vintage Bentley coachwork but they do make windscreen frames - might have some thoughts for you. These are not from any personal experience but were suggested by participants on the VSCC members forum.
