NIPPY SCREEN TOGGLES - Rpm - 01-03-2019
Hi all ,may I ask someone to post a picture of the Nippy Rattle toggles on the windscreen corners. Im assuming these are not available as a reproduction items.
I also want to make Nippy doors locks, unless someone can help with these items. Can hear you lauging already.
Thanks all.
Regards Rob

Rob,
You need to talk with Chris Gould - he actually wrote a guide to reproducing Nippy door catches.

I am not sure which bits are the "rattle toggles" but there are some pictures here of Nippy windscreens that might help.

Thinking more about it I wonder if this is what you need, I have always referred to it as an acorn

If so I bought some from Willie Mckenzie, Austin Repro.

Thanks, Chris, Dave. will see if I can gain more info on door catches, C.guold. Re the windscreen, its the turn catches each end of the screen, which I assume stops screen rattle and also stops it opening .The catches are mounted on the outside bottom each end.

Willie also supplied me with these and the stepped screw to attach them.
