Default Waiting for my windscreen

Hi All,

I ordered a Windscreen from Windscreens Obrian last
week. It comes as glass only but was only $200.00.
Now all i have to do is make a frame for it. I dont suppose
anyone has an old frame from a broken screen to sell?
I hope it will fit Beryl.

Dave.

Kevin Meyer here in Melbourne did my screen. His phone number is AH 03 9725 6485. He may be able to help.

Hope this helps

Richard , Kevin made mine also. He does beautiful work and a real nice bloke also. Dave make sure you use the correct sealing material (urethane I think) as suggested in earlier threads they can crack very easily if not sealed with the right goop.

Does Kevin make them?
What kinda price did the complete screen setup cost?

I am still thinking of going with a aero screen (to register early enough for Nationals), does anyone know a supplier?

I spoke to Kevin,
Seems like a man who knows what he is talking about.
He has a back order of 6 months and wasn't sure about
interstate windscreens. I think he was a bit worried about
rough freight. I found a few local leads to chase up
on.

Warren is right Dave, woodsie's windscreens was where I purchased my glass and brass/chrome frame. Complete for around $1150. He also makes Windwings & sunvisors to suit his frame. I'm positive that your 'O'brian screen is the same as the one woodsie's use, so fittment wouldn't be a prob.

There is also a bloke that makes a good frame in Bunbury, I don't have his contact details, however I can get the info for you through the WACCC if you'd like?

Thanks,
I'll give him a try.
Hey Simmo what brand tyres are using on the rear of your car.
I have discovered another guy in Albany building a no brand
Cobra. He says he is having trouble finding wide 15' tyres?
