Windsscreen are still available

I can think of 2 companies but can't remember the names, and I had mine done at 1 of them !!

phil530d I think is one of the pistonheads names for Autoglass ? who had a batch made and fitted about 20 at a previous Wedgefest

And I think Seac owner had another company put one in his SEAC recently - but again hopeless with names

Had mine replaced over the xmas break with Phil. Very good job I must say. 'Glassman' is the other chap.

I've never had a problem sourcing screens, last few were from cotswold windscreens... about 250-300 fitted iirc..

I must have been responsible for using about 6 of the blinking things in the race car, and oh yes its got a but screen currently !!! polycarb next for the next one i think..

"BOUGHT THE CAR 3 YEARS AGO AND RE PAINTED IT ,AND NEVER GOT ROUND TO FINISHING THE PROJECT,IT NEEDS THE PASSENGER SIDE HEADLAMP SORTED AND THE EXHAUST REPAIRED OTHER THAN THAT ITS SPOT ON ,IT HAS A GOOD CHASSIS AND RUNS A1 THE TRIM IS IN FANTASTIC CONDITION FOR ITS AGE.IT WOULD ONLY TAKE A LITTLE WORK TO FINISH."

go and view the car and if it really needs "a little work to finish"...it might be worth to buy it....but not for this price. it also depends on the quality of the respray.

you could expect a good car, with a spot-on chassis, with full service history ,without an aftermarket sunroof, incl. MOT for this price.

Phil should be delighted to have been associated with Autoglass
