Race Windshield

Post by Steve49841 »

Does anyone know if an 8-10" clear lexan/plastic windshield is available for a Roadster race car? I've surfed around and haven't come up with anything....Thanks.....Steve

Les Cannaday at Classic Datsun.

I went recently to Aircraft Windshield (right near my house) with someone else to get a hardtop screen formed.
They do lots of race stuff. Not sure if they have ever done our roadsters.

Hi Steve,
I have a template for mine (that Mike Unger perfected). Just cut it out of lexan and attach. Email me at roadster33@gmail.com if interested. Pics can be found on my site. Follow the 'Roadster Gallery' link.

I just completed scanning and creating a CAD drawing of the windshield and side skirt (from the Steve/Mike template mentioned above). If someone needs it, email me at texasstig@att.net

If you don't have a CAD program or way to open DXF files, I can print it on several PDFs. That's actually more of a pain, but will do it if someone requests. There are alignment marks on the drawing so the plots can be taped together.

I really need to take some pictures of my car and properly introduce myself. Still working that one...
Just the tip.

Welcome Stig - from a fellow Texan.

At least put your town in your forum profile.

Cheers

Did have a chance to cut one from the template? If so, don't hold back... the masses want pictures!

Go to nonameracing.com, roadster gallery link on the left. 2010 elvf, 2012 elvf, and the mid ohio albums have some good pics of it. As well as lots of other pics and videos.

Enjoy! Hopefully it will also inspire you!
