Aero Screen

Where can i get a nice shaped aero screen, that will make it a bit bearable to drive without a windscreen.

I have seen a nice curved one in black, cant remember where i saw it though, which is no help at all.

Also i dont want to pay caterham/westfield prices.

Thanks

MK Aeroscreen

I've seen the MK Aeroscreen too...

Let's say - there's room for improvement.

If you can wait till after xmas i will be selling these:-



Sorry the picture is not very good we are still only making the buck (picture shows screen fitted to the scuttle). The top edge of the screen will also be a little lower when its finished.

It will be perfect fit for an MK and be held on by hidden bolts.

Once the thing is finished i will post somemore pics

Austin,

forgive my stupidity, is this an add on aeroscreen or a scuttle moulded with an aeroscreen?

I presume it's based on mk's bodywork, so would be interchangable with their grp?

thanks,

Ned.

Its an add on screen that will bolt/fit straight onto an MK scuttle.

What are other manufactures scuttles like compard to MK? Just wondering how it would fit a ST for example.

found this picture in my archives of a Tiger Avon (being factory built) with a quite nice aero screen fitted. was thinking of something similair myself.....

It's actually the Avon they took to Donington for their stand.

Just realised it does look like just a scuttle Thebrown clay shape is actually a aero screen that rises about 100mm above the scuttle. The first layer of fibreglass was laid onto the buck last night, so i should get some better pictures of a finished one soon.

It might show better from a different angle, it does look like a normal scuttle from there.





yours, Pete

I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.
