I'm helping a guy with his Renegade, he has the glass but no screen surround, can anyone help?? Also, was there a particular roll bar for these?
Thanks

Unfortunately all the moulds for the Renegade went missing a few years ago after the owner died. Maybe someone in the kit car industry could make a surround to fit the (105E Anglia) screen?

An alternative may be to modify the bonnet to take a regular flat screen like the Euro version, the Apal Jet

Original roll bar was a two tube affair covered in vinyl made by Aleybars who did a lot of cages in the 70s. You could fit a regular roll bar I guess but I don't think you'd find one off the peg, it'd have to be made to measure.

Apal Jet...
