windshield frame?

[Brubaker]

Among a pile of parts. Model T windshield frame? Thanks. Bruce

This will fir a 26 or 27 T roadster, roadster pickup & touring. The bottom windshield frame would be curved at the bottom if it was there.

I would not be so fast to jump on this being T. The double nuts to hold the top on is not typical, the squarish cross-section of the stantion should be more rounded as I remember and the inside of the stantion about 2" above cowl seems to take a sharper dogleg than the curve a T has. Chevrolet??

Looks like a Chevy piece to me.

If it helps to ID, there are three turn snaps on each post(facing driver?). All turn, nothing froze-up.

I stand corrected! This is likely Chevrolet mid to late 20s. similar to the following picture.

Thanks for the pic Jack. Now, if only there was a Chevy Barn(swap meet)!

I have a simular one, bit it appears someone cobbloed to onto a DB, as they cut off the bottom several inches of the post and welded a threaded post like DB used. Rod

 

[Brubaker]

Rowdy,
What is the DB abbreviation? I found the lower piece(curved,along dash/cowl) too, so it should be complete.

Thanks for the pic Jack. Now, if only there was a Chevy Barn(swap meet)!

Just for the heck of it why don't you google Chevybarn.com , you might be amazed at what you find!

By the way DB is what you find all over a Dodge Brothers car.

Jack,
Okay, now I stand corrected. Thanks for the link. Bruce

 

[Rowdy]

Dodge Brothers.

other 'vintage' sites

I realize(and respect) that this is specifically a 'Ford' site, but there must be a few that have an 'T', or 'A' and maybe a Chevy or DB(?). The question pertains to other 'vintage auto' sites that allow parts to be sold. Ford Barn is a great site for doing such, but the part in-question is Chevy(mid-to-late twenties). Other than Chevybarn,AACA and H.A.M.B., am I missing one? Doesn't seem to a lot of traffic on those sites. I could be wrong. Thanks.

Re: other 'vintage' sites

Hi Brubaker,
Chevrolet has a similar site as FordBard. It is VCCA.org They have a forum and parts for sale section.
