[Healeys] Wind blocker

[banjojohn]

Hi allA while back there was a thread abour wind blockers, and I asked about where I could find a picture.  I never found anything on the LBCars site, (likely user error)Anyway, I decided to try to build one for my BJ8, and I think it came out fairly well.  I used the drain hole brackets down in the body just behind the doors as sockets to put the 5/16 steel rods into.  I bent the rod to get the right angles to hold the bottom frame down against the tonneau support frame and added a couple straps with snaps that could snap to the snaps already on the tonneau to make sure it doesnt come loose.  The bottom frame is made of 2 pieces of 3/4 × 1 oak with a piece of oak cove moulding attached to the bottom of the front one to fit over the tonneau frame rail.  The "glass" is a piece of 1/8" lexan 9" x 38" sandwiched between the 2 oak pieces.  I made mine 38 inches wide so it can be stowed on or under the parcel shelf whan not in use.Sent from my Sprint Samsung Galaxy S10e.
