Windscreen ID help

[tom_loughlin]

After speaking to a neighbour of mine, he has shown me this windscreen that he has lying about in his shed, and I thought I'd open it to the masses to see who can identify it...

Something healey is my best guess, but before the days of Austin Healey, but I'm sure someone will know for sure.

It's very narrow, possibly 1000mm ish, with a wiper hole arrangement on one side. Folds down, and it looks as though the fittings (knobs etc..) are nickel, and very well conserved.

There looks like the bracket that mounts to the body is very curved, so i think is is from a very small sportscar, possibly pre-war, and there is what is left of a rubber flat seal around the bottom.

Over to you...

Not near any rivers or the coast is it?

[tom_loughlin]

It's on the English/Welsh border, near Oswestry, so not too near the coast.

So your bet is a boat spaceman? Hadn't thought of that

That hinge just doesn't suit a car to me and I remember being in a couple of old '70/80s speedboats with screens like that, was just a thought as I couldn't google image match it with any cars.
