A second, smaller, and probably last batch is currently being made, four left available. Advert has been left up for interested people to pre-order; estimated completion of the frames approx. half way through the year. 

More information by finding me on facebook (Dan Poll) or asking my dad Nick.

Copied from an original frame, and all ten test-fitted to an original roadster, and phosphate coated by a professional.

Complete with spring steel clips, webbing, rivets and trim bolts, specific front rubber trim, correct square section aluminium strips - everything but the hood itself (best have that tailor-made to the car by a trimmer) I've done my best to make them as close to original as possible, but o ne difference is the way the parts of the frame  are connected - instead of using hammer rivets, which are much harder work, we opted for nuts and bolts, I've made them fairly tight to allow for initial settling in, but except where not possible (in which case I used loctite threadlocker) I've put two nuts tightened against each other to make the lock - they can be slightly undone and re-tightened a fraction further down the thread should you want a more free-moving frame .

Please take into account that these cars were hand built, we deal with Messerschmitts all the time and although in theory they're all the same there are often slight differences in the measurements of the metalwork, so obviously I cannot guarantee a 100% perfect fit to your car right out of the box - especially if it's a roadster conversion and not an original. I hope it won't be necessary, but expect to need a little tweaking to fit your car nicely. We've test fitted every one of the ten frames  to my dad's car and they all fit - the good thing being they all have a little bit of horizontal movement once unfolded so in all ten cases we were able to make the front of the wind deflector come nicely into line with the top of the windscreen, though depending in your car this may or may not require a little filing of the holes in the spring steel strips to make them meet the windscreen bolts (best to make the top line up and alter the holes than the other way round). It is normal and as original that the wind deflector has a smaller curve at the edges than the windscreen. The angle of the two tabs that slot into the frame  holding brackets at the rear is also the same as original despite looking a bit too flayed out, it's to hold it in nicely under tension once fitted. We find they are easier to fit when the frame  is slightly unfolded first.

It's taken a while getting all of the components together - the front deflectors were made by an expert metalworker who specialises in Messerschmitts, the rest of the metalwork done by a local chap who knows his stuff and works well, then I had to source the rubber profile, trims, spring steel for the front windscreen connecting strips, webbing  and other bits and bobs to fix it all together. It all adds up and has taken a lot of time!


5m of webbing is also supplied (more than required) with a sketch of the measurements I've taken from my dad's frame  where it attaches to various points. Also included are all the rivets, washers, nuts and bolts for fitting the webbing and trim. 

The above hasn't been fitted because the frames  have currently been sprayed with an anti-rust coating at the local paint shop, using the same professional product he uses on all the cars he resprays. This can easily be sprayed over so the frames  are left bare initially should you want yours sprayed silver. The webbing also hasn't been fitted as it's best to fit the frame  first then judge the position of the hoops where you want them after - you can use the measurements of my dad's frame  which will be supplied but as you'll see in the photos it looks like the webbing has been redone on it once upon a time in the past. 

For the hood , from my dad's experience the best solution is to have the car brought to a proper trimmer once you have your frame  so the hood  can be made to a perfect fit. They'll probably be able to I've done my best to put in the effort to make these as complete, save the actual hood  itself, and accurate as possible. 

We can however supply a rough sketch of the shape with approximate measurements, and photos can be found on the internet for reference. 

Shipping depends on destination - €20 within France, €40 within the EU, €50 for eastern Europe, Norway and north Africa, and €110 for the rest of world. You're welcome to arrange your own shipping if you prefer - weight is approx 6.5kg including packaging and the box is about 70x70x30cm.

Also have the metal side rails with plastic runners, acetal steering bushes, wooden rear seat backrest frames, and my dad has cast aluminium Roadster wheel spinners too.
