My idea involved rigging it to a tonneaux bar -- the bar that fits into the slots on the side and runs directly behind the seats. Although I suppose vertical rails on the sides would be needed for st

Hey Dan, that's even slicker! Or just designing it with built-in brackets to drop into the slots (replacing the tonneau bar), since you couldn't really have the tonneau cover on at the same time, any

I just came across a package of small copper straps for nailing up plumbing pipe to floor joists "U" shaped with a flange and a hole on each end. Just the thing for attaching something flat to a tube

Good find, Eric! Now I'm wondering how much force is placed on one of these windbreaks. As I said in my earlier post, I'm not sure that just fastening at the bottom of a plate of plexiglass would be

Yeah, that's why I was thinking you'd want some kind of metal U-channel on either edge of the plexiglass for stiffening, not necessarily from top to bottom, but a significant portion. It would also b

Speaking of wind buffeting....I just had a thought.... Has any smart entrepreneur designed one of those wind screens that go behind the seats for MGs? (and all older roadsters) Those things are optio

Now that you mention it, I'm sure I saw an ad for such a thing somewhere... cost multi-hundred bucks, of course. I must admit I've looked at those acorn nuts adorning the rear wheel arches with the t

I've seen ads for http://www.windbaffle.com in MG newsletters. They have two products; a Wind Baffle ($249 US) or a Gust Grabber ($149 US). Looking at the pictures of the Gust Grabber makes me want t

A friend of mine just made one a month ago for his B. Says it works great. His follows the outline of, and is bolted to the back of, his "roll bar". If he's got enough plexi left over, I might try de

I just checked them out and I wasn't too impressed, either. For one thing, on an early B their theory that most of the back blast comes from between the headrests is irrelevant. Not to mention that t
