Thanks Brian, I am aware of several types of bronze castings for special windshields on early Fords such as the Duvall V-shape and there is a beautiful special frame from Outlaw for '32s. These bronze castings are usually VERY expensive so what attracted me to the "pie-cut" idea is that you can use ordinary steel windshield posts and just notch them by cutting out a pie-shaped wedge and rewelding after bending the angle closed. This means that one only risks less than $100 for steel brackets and the usual glass and rubber seals can be used. The Brookville catalog shows the header to be made of wood so the vertical posts need to enter the wood straight up, I suppose. That is why I would like to communicate with the folks who did the roadster I show in the picture. Well maybe no person on this Forum has worked with the pie-cut idea but Bob Parmenter knew about it; maybe it is a rare trick not common among roadster builders.
