Perhaps I'm not one to offer Clark advice, as I still have many, many Triumph bits he "cleared out" decades ago! :)
That said, I would hang onto the glass if uncracked and relatively scratch-free. As for the frames, if they are straight and rust-free, I'd also hang onto them. I've managed to make a couple of restorers quite happy in recent years with straight and rust-free early Spitfire windshield frames! --Andy Mace *Mrs Irrelevant: Oh, is it a jet? *Man: Well, no ... It's not so much of a jet, it's more your, er, Triumph Herald engine with wings. -- Cut-price Airlines Sketch, Monty Python's Flying Circus (22) Triumph 10 / Herald / Sports 6 vehicle consultant, The Vintage Triumph Register: http://www.vtr.org Check out the North American Triumph Sports 6 (Vitesse 6) and Triumph Herald Database: http://triumph-herald.us -----Original Message----- From: Clark W.

I just threw out 2 cracked (due to storage for decades) ones. I have one roundtail version out of frame and several in the frame. (and a bunch of doors, boot lids, etc) Making room.
