custom windshield- oUcH$$$
well spent about a month molling over a windshield design for this pretty cool ride I have been working on for 6 years+.
made a template out of sheet steel, welded some A-pillars on and shipped to PA for manufacturing a windshield to make it DOT legal.
Now get this- for a small ~22" X 20" curved laminated safety glass windscreen it's gonna cost $1900 +.
O U C H
But I am in the final stages and if I cheap out now it will really show up. Wish I knew how to shrink pics on my new comp here so I could illustrate. But 6 weeks from now I should have a new windshield. Was really hoping for license plates by now already but...
BTW- corvette calipers working out OK for parking brake. Got to change to 12" rotors too coz the Toronado rotors were too thick for them. Now if I can find parking brake cable that will work withthem.
Sorry for your loss of friend Mike McGee, Shine. Great trans men are few and far between, it seems. Sadly, Mike Frade was only 66 and had been talking about retirement for ten years that I know...
