WITEI the object of meeting certain demands from bodybuilders and motor-vehicle users. the British Steel Frame Co., of 193, Cambridge Road, London, E.2, has lately produced a new type of three-panel windscreen ; the upper section in front of the driver is movable. The price of the screen is
• 2 guineas, and prompt delivery can be given.Nine standard sizes are available, and these are found to satisfy the needs of most users, although windscreens, of special dimensions can be turned 'out. Each section of the windscreen frame Is made in one piece and, by constructing the outer side in the form of a flat strip through whichscrews may be passed into the cab pillars, the necessity of providing moulding has been overcome. Fitting is an operation involving only a few minutes' work. The corners of the framework are neatly overlapped and are extremely strong.
At present, the company's product is finished in black, but it is proposed shortly to produce windscreens in stainless steel. Another new departure for the British Steel Frame Co. is the manufacture of a handy and inexpensive
petrol-can carrier. This will accommodate three cans, and consists of a metal frame divided into sections. Across the front is a lockable bar.
The device is intended to be fitted under the body and ,beside the chassis. This is a convenientpoint, and it will be realized that the floor of the body, projecting sideways beyond the chassis, prevents the cans from being moved without first unfastening the padlock.
