I'm restoring a 1959 Barbour Silver Clipper and it's mising the port side windshield trim from the wooden frame.
The trim is a 1/4" extruded aluminum quarter round.
Does anyone know where to find this material?
I have found it in round and square, but not in quarter round profile....just trying to avoid having to have it machined down.
I checked Taco, and several others and am having no luck.
Thanks,
Tom

Try this place in Detroit. They have all sorts of surplus and odd ball aluminum extrusions. Call them and ask. You may get lucky

Thanks Joe.
I will call them this week.

The aluminum strips that retain the glass on my '57 Sea Lancer are 1/4" square aluminum stock. For yours, don't forget that you can machine aluminum with woodworking tools, especially carbide-tipped cutters. You could take 1/4" square stock and round it over on a router table using featherboards to hold it against the bit. Might not be your preferred solution, but at least an alternative.
