Re: From the archives - Make your own windscreen
I have been looking for windshield brackets on ebay for a while now and they seem to have gone crazy with their prices $400 to $500 eg http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Chris-Cr ... 500wt_1182 so a few of the guy's on Glen-l have started to make their own and they look the part.

Re: From the archives - Make your own windscreen
They do look the part, with the demand am surprised no one has cast, particularly in ali.. I've a search for other brackets and have seen a number of these come up where the prices aren't meteoric, so is worthwhile biding your time. Also worth trying Timage as I think they used to do that style set..

Re: From the archives - Make your own windscreen
I have a new old stock set of ally ones for a pattern to cast from.
Re: From the archives - Make your own windscreen
Are they for sale, or would you set up your own little business and make me a set
I use to make molds when I was younger for the lead soldiers and cannons so I'd say it's just a step up from that.
Are they like these.http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayI ... _892wt_941
