The Peerless & Warwick Discussion Forum

Frank · Frank

If this has been mentioned before, please forgive me but I've never seen it and perhaps others haven't either. In amongst 200 odd cars is a Phase 1 Peerless on wire wheels at 13.35 mins in. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pV1K2rG7cVg

I'm looking for a rear window glass for a Warwick GT. I've tried the source listed in the past forums messages with no luck. Now hoping someone knows of another source or has a spare they might parts with. Blue skies and green lights, Jim Bolinger (Canton, Ohio, USA)

Since relocating to Northern California we have been consumed with house things, but we did manage to stretch the legs of the Warwick and drove with 50 vintage sports cars through the Sierras.
