I made the aeroscreen mount with jeremy, they came out very well thanks, but they all sold very quickly. At the moment i'm not planning to do any more.


John

Are you teasing me Can you do some drawings of those Morris screens Mike

[jack neville]

Mike are the Morris ones similar to WOT ? I do have one original screen largely complete

[Mike K]

I think the Morris screen may be different

I think wot2 are the same as bedford as they seem to have the same mounts. Which mounts are you missing? I may have a couple of one hand left i think.

john

OK John

if you can find those screens one day I will post you a bottle of Aussie wine Mike

Ok back to the real world of my Bedford resto if you two want to discuss aeroscreen fittings do it somewhere else please here are a couple of pics of the new brackets I made the patterns for and John very kindly did all the fettling and machining I can see now how much hard work went into them especially the dreaded wing nuts, thanks again John they look the dogs doh dah's can't wait till I fit them to the bulkhead

[jack neville]

This is the complete windscreen frame removed from a Fordson WOT 2H I recovered but obviously refitted from a WOT 2D at some stage. Or a Bedford!!

The brass hinge piece measures 92mm x45mm

Is the glass frame made from steel ? Hard to tell in that pic but it appears to be so Mike

I've removed my posted at the request of jeremy which is quite fair enough. Maybe start a new thread regarding the aeroscreens.
