As per subject line, I'm looking for an Elise windscreen for my 'Elise replica' project.

Mine is being replaced shortly, only has 2 x 1 foot cracks in it, and so shot blasted that you can not see through it into the sun.

Free to a good home. <BG>

Also front and rear clamshells thrown in for good measure, with lots of miles left in them.

I'd be happy to take that lot off you. It will at least help get things lined up and packaged (wiper positions, dashboard vents, subframes, etc.). And it'll also help keep the rain out! (It's currently sitting outside with no tarp'!).

Just let me know when it's available and I'll come and collect it. Why are you ditching the clams?

Didn't realise he had more than one!

You're not finally fitting those new clams are you?
If you are you should get the old ones mounted in the house in the same way you'd mount a stag's head. <BG>

Just spoke to Steve by phone, for the purpose that he wants them, the windscreen and clams will do the job, and Craig may even be able to drop them off for him somewhere near his home, so better that a large part of N1 TUT lives on, as opposed to in the skip.

Not exactly sure, but between 105/110 front, 115/120 rear. However it looks lower than that when you look at clearance between tyre and arch, around one finger, but I do have strong 400/500 springs.

Hi Tut - any 'movement' on the screen and clams?!

Afraid that they smashed the old windscreen completely when they changed it, but I have both clamshells off in Craigs garage and you are welcome to them.

Front one is structurally sound, but the rear one needs some fibreglassing on the worst crack.

OK - I'll have the clams - I know an excellent fibreglass man that should be able to take care of the worst of it.

Where's Craig's garage at?!

Just down the road from Old Deer, which is 30 miles North of Aberdeen.

That makes it 195 miles from you, therefore it may not be feasible for you to pick them up.

However Stu Pollack has bought a front clam from me that also has to go down, he lives in Livingston, which is two miles off the Old Deer-Darvel route.

How far from Turriff? My mate's uncle lives there and he frequently visits...

Just down the road, 9 miles.
