[Healeys] Windscreens

[Guy Coldwell]

In his original submission Ray posted an image of the screens he is looking for and they are the DMHC Co aero screens with A H cast in the aluminium frame. These are not generic Brooklands or Auster type screens which are available from various sources but have very specific feet to them, totally unlike other aero screens, and a rubber sweeper which seals to the cowl.  For this reason they are expensive (£375 each) because they are the correct works type.  As I mentioned in my previous post, I have a pair in SoCal not yet mounted.  Only about a dozen pairs of the originals were made and when I missed out on an original pair, I purchased the repros from Steve Norton at Cape International.  This is the ONLY current source I believe, although some (about 20?) were made in the 1990s.  The £ is currently weak against the US $ ($1.20 to the £ today) so now is a good time to buy if you are in the US.

I also mentioned in my earlier post that I was not happy with the glass shape once they arrived and I found a shape close to the originals from the UK.
