Back again guys, I just spoke with Drew Guild of Win Manufacturing, a major fabricator of all types of windshields and laminated glass products for current and classic autos. I discussed our needs and got the following response. They would be prepared to set up for and create Marcos front and rear screens at a cost of US$7500 for ten units for each of the front and rear. Each screen would therefore cost US$750 or CAN$1200 plus shipping, so it isn't cheap. I got my last windshield through the Marcos Owners Club last year for less than CAN$1000 delivered to my door. Below is the contact information for WIN Manufacturing:- WIN Manufacturing 1120 Magee St. Elmira New York USA 14901 Toll Free: 888-935-0111 Tel: 607-734-4009 Fax: 607-734-4519 Contact: Drew Guild As a final comment on this exercise, based on what I've learned over the last few months, I would still probably have obtained a new screen through the Marcos Owners Club, because I know they fit properly and the price is more reasonable. Going through Paul Crocker at the MOC, with the numbers we need, the delivery time could be less than 6 months because Pilkington would probably manufacture the screens right away rather than delaying as they did with me and Ron. Once manufactured, they could be shipped door to door in less than a month, as they were in my case. Someone would have to coordinate the collection of funds etc. but if action was begun now, they could be available by next spring. Regards, Paul Dransfield 3 litre Volvo
