    Which windshield frame and stanchions for 30-31 Model A Roadster should i buy??
    Deluxe or Standard?
    Will a Deluxe frame work with `32 stanchions??
    Stock or 2" chopped `32 stanchions???

    TIA

    I used 32, which I think were 2" shorter than deluxe.

    I was cutting down a standard windsheild anyway, so it didn't matter.

    You do have to cut a notch in th lower stantion, and the angle for the top mount will not line up with stock model a top.

    Even if you tilt the windsheild back with the model a stantions it won't line up with the top.

    None of that will matter if you are making your own top, or cutting down an original like I did.

    If you want to bolt something on and you have a deluxe windsheild, just get the deluxe stantions.

    If you want to chop the windsheild, then get the 32 and cut the windsheild to fit.

    I wish I had an easier answer for you.

  4. If you want A only, the deluxe is shorter by design; a factory chop.
