Hi Martin
£1600 for the glass is shocking, The Ferrari Dino windscreen should only cost about £300 to £600 tops and the glass for the side windows about 35 each for the smaller ones and 60 for the wind down ones and any decent glazier should be able to e-mark these too which will be required for the SVA. As it is the Mirabeau I have worked on and currently have a second one needed built. The window frames and different and I don't need the rear window so can't really advise on this. If there is a local stainless steel or billet alluminium fabricator try and borrow a set of Deon frames off someone and get them fabricated in one of these materials rather than the poor quality cheap aluminium frames Deon used to supply.
There are so many stories with this new Company don't give them the money until your getting the goods as I know a guy who lost 600 quid from them and never got any of the goods he ordered. Alot like how Deon/JH Classics Used to operate.
Thanks
