MG TD TF 1500 - Kit Car MGTD Dutchess

I am currently in final construction of an MGTD Kit from Classic Roadsters [I've had the kit for 12 years and finally getting around to building it]. I have misplaced the windshield frame which had come with the kit. I am desperately in need of a sketch of the cross section from anyone having such as kit.
I also need the right headlamp casting either new or used.
Can anyone help?

Don't know if it would even fit....but there is a windshield frame from a TC on ebay right now?

Dutch........sorry to tell you, but this is a web site for real MG's. I would tend to look into a web site that does deal with kit cars.

That was a bit harsh, wasn't it? Though I do agree that finding a site that deals with kit cars may be a bit more help as there a liable to be significant differences between the TD kit vs. actual TDs.

I thought that was a bit harsh also......Dutch is from "Santa Claus" IN."....this time of year why take a chance...I'm hoping for a new top from the guy with the white beard this year!

Dutch,
There are several kit car magazines out there, and I have seen various components advertised for sale, so there is a possibility of finding what you need. You might also try Hemmings Motor News. They have a replica and kit car section. Good luck!

BTW, I figure gearheads is gearheads, and not everyone can get a "real" TD. The desire for something different and unique is still there, and perhaps one day Dutch will be able to have a TC or TD. If not, he's still having fun. We had a guy in our club a few years ago with a MiGi, and he contributed a lot to our group. I'd love to have one of the 250 Ferrari replicas that they used in Ferris Buhler's Day Off. I don't have the 3/4 mil it would take for a real one. I'd know it wasn't real, as would most everyone, but I would still enjoy it.
