Would anyone be so kind as to take a picture of the windscreen markings on a modern era TVR (Griffith, Cerbera, Chimaera, Tuscan)?

The reason I ask is that I would like to import a car for parts to the USA and build a 'specially constructed vehicle' using as much as possible from the original car. Glazing might be a stumbling block if the DOT number is missing....

Thanks in advance - one of the biggest downsides to having moved to the USA is the absence of TVRs!

One last plea - if you happen to be cleaning your car or stopped at a light, please take a look at the markings on your windows. Does it have the letters 'DOT' anywhere on any of the glass?

For importing a parts car to the US, this is a big deal, so I need to know what the score is.

Thanks guys!

Thanks chaps! That is great news. BTW, DOT 60 is for Muotolasi Oy of Finland. Did you notice if the other glass has the same markings?

Thanks again! That's another obstacle easily dealt with.
