I need a pair for my 27 Runabout and these seem low-priced- just wondered if anyone has tried using them?

Thanks,
Jim

I have a pair of windshield stanchions for sale. They are for a 1927 T Runabout.I bought them new and then realized they are different than the 26 runabout stanchions which I have. They are painted and came off the car in about two weeks when I got the new 26 stanchions. Some paint chipped off where top bows clamped on and bolt heads to body. Also where windshield turn knobs tightened windshield. My telephone number is 701 772 4609. Address is Grand Forks, ND 68201

JIm, I know they have the holes shown in the picture, but if u read the description it says u have to drill holes to mount, I don't know what holes they mean

I have reproduction stanchions my car. They work ok but the channel for the rubber seal is too shallow and I did not use any seal. I don't know if all are like that. I did not have to drill any holes in them.

Reginald,
I'll be calling you.

Thanks,
Jim

Mike,
I called and asked them and they indicated that the statement "may have to drill holes" means that it may not fit every T-bucket style.

Thanks- Jim
