Wanted TR3 Windscreen guide plates

[jwdyer]

I'm new to the forum, so hopefully I've done this according to Hoyle. I'm looking for a pair of guide plates for a TR3a windscreen, pre TS-60000, with the three attachment bolts and two Dzus fastener points.

Thanks in advance!!

John,
you asking for the two windsheild posts or stanchions as they are called? As in picture.

Not the stanchions themselves...I've got those. The guide plates that those stanchions slide onto is what I am missing. Part numbers 552818 and 552819 in The Roadster Factory TR3 catalog (pg 167). The guide plates are bolted directly to the scuttle with three 1/4" fine thread screws. There are two larger holes with Dzus spring wires that the windshield stanchions attach to. The body work on the car had the three 1/4" holes covered over and there were no guide plates when I go the vehicle. The windscreen with stanchions was present, but not mounted.

That eBay link is for the stanchions and the tenon plates between the stanchion and windscreen. I need the guide plates that bolt directly to the scuttle in pre TS-60000 cars. Hopefully the attached photo will show up.
