pearl cabriolet - robert regan - 08-07-2018
does anyone out there have a rear window frame for a pearl cabriolet available for sale,I have just acquired a very original but "scruffy"! car running and driving plus as a bonus it stops very well .There is no rot anywhere and the original interior is very usable and will be preserved it has had a new hood at sometime and I think that was when it lost its window. could any owner of a pearl post the size of the frame and the height it sits from the top of the body best regards Rob.

Is it a mk1 or mk2 Robert?
RE: pearl cabriolet - robert regan - 08-07-2018
its 1936 mk1 best regards Rob.

I will measure mine later for you Rob, I think it will be easy to shorten a Ruby glass to the correct dimensions.
RE: pearl cabriolet - Ruairidh Dunford - 09-07-2018
16 1/2” height and 17” wide.

Does he not mean the rear window not the side ones?
RE: pearl cabriolet - robert regan - 09-07-2018
yes your right I meant the frame in the hood, thanks to all Rob.

Is a Mk2 window the same size as a Mk1, if so I have the rear glass out of mine somewhere.
If its any help I have the rear outer frame on the shelf in the garage, would it help you if I draw round it on paper ? Edit to add : mine is a MK2 but presume they are the same.
RE: pearl cabriolet - Ruairidh Dunford - 09-07-2018
Sorry, I misunderstood.
The rear windows are very slightly different sizes between mk1 and 2.
However you can buy something that looks correct (and is very similar in size) here: https://www.vintagecarparts.co.uk/products/906-hood-window-frame

mine is a mk 1 but if they are both almost the same size if I had the outer I can make the inside frame and the support bars and hinges the glass would be usefull as well ,I am on a landline number if you could tell me what you want for your items thanks to all Rob. 01495 222066.
