Windscreen Post Repair

[Dennis C.]

Hi,

I recently purchased a 1961 Vette and I am starting a restoration. The windscreen posts have the tabs broken off and I am considering the repair options. My thought was to machine a piece of flat aluminum stock to match the concave tab, then machine the bottom of the post to accept the aluminum stock. I would then screw the flat stock to the underside of the post.

I would appreciate hearing if anyone else has done this.

Thanks for your help.

Dennis

Places like Corvette Central have been doing a similar repair for years. Biggest difference is that they use steel stock for the tab.

Ed,

Thanks for the reply. I knew that CC offered a repair, but I didn't know what the repair was.

Thanks,

Dennis
