Brass Windshield ID
I just purchased this windshield at our swapmeet last night and I do not know what make or model. the number 120 appears on it several times. It is solid brass and measures 37 1/2 inches X17 1/2 inches. If nothing else I will use it for a wall hanger. Any thoughts? thanks, Bob.

Re: Brass Windshield ID
It would look even better hanging on a period speedster. Nice find!

Re: Brass Windshield ID
I suggest posting it on the AACA.org "What is it?" and HCCA general forums. You don't need to be a member to set up a profile:

There were a lot of split, ventilating windshields out there. The Eagle windshield is similar to yours:
