Windshield specs for top rail: 1985 Vulture

Post: # 14300Post vulture62 »

Guys, I need some help, I am in the process of getting windshield made for my Vulture.
What I need to know is:
1-dimensions on the top railing- thickness, length etc.
2-material used for railing: does it have to be alumunim? other types?
3-has anyone ever put a windshield on without the top railing?
Thanks
Eric

I have a place that I believe can make the windshield, I sent him the template US mail today, he doesn't make frames.
Peter DeCler is the guy in MN.

If someone finds a source, I would be interested in a top rail also. Mine is fine, but it rattles. Bill
