Very helpfull post

Best make sure I steer well away from those when I see them on ebay


On a more serious note & not to put a downer on the whole idea.

Any pre-produced windscreen is going to have to rely on a constant scuttle shape. For example, a scuttle you personally produce.

Even if they are made as a matched pair, problems may still arise !!??

Being as the Roadster chassis will most likely be home built. When it comes to fitting the scuttle you may find that the chassis is a few mm wider or narrower than the book spec.
You may get the scuttle fitted with a bit of tweaking but where will that leave the fitment of the windscreen ?

I think that this is probably the reason as to why no one has jumped in to fill the gap for this particular item.
