Hi well, I have returned to my 2000GT build, but unfortunately I accidently stood on the windscreen and damaged it. As it is a complete kit Deag are unable to supply just the screen. I am stuck now. May have to try and fabricate a screen...

OH dear.You could make a vacuumformed one if you can get the original windscreen back into one piece. For parts like that you dont need the vacuumforming machine .You can just gently heat the vacuumform plastic and then quickly press it down over the windshield and it will give you a good copy.

Your other option would be making a mold and casting it in clear resin, but that wouldnt be as clear as the vacuumformed part.



Here is a link to some information on making replacement clear parts without a vacuumforming machine (smash forming)
