[Healeys] Windscreens

[gradea1 at charter.net]

Guys-here is an original example-not a repro or modern day item.
Probably made by the folks who did the sidescreens back then. Cast
alloy. Hank

 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.
