Hi All.
Is there a US manufacturer or supplier of the tapered tubular sockets for the hood bows used on some phaetons and roadsters.
I am not particularly impressed wth the response i received from the Australian monoply supplier at this stage.
Thanks.
JACK

Many years ago we used to have them cast out of brass for hood irons we manufactured. Recently I had to make a set of irons and used some original ends and fitted into new tubes, Hope this helps. Neil

I know this is an old thread but I had a pair made by the Amish in PA and the quality and price was spot on!
