RE: [MarcosManiacs] Real glass Rear Window

2010-04-26 by R J

Hi Guys

I’ve been reading about the rear screen enquiries as I’m the one who bought the 1970 car from Hayes Harris at Wire Wheel Sportscars – and she needs a new rear screen...

Rory at Marcos Heritage in the UK is listing new perspex (plexiglass?) rear screens for £95 each, with the screen rubber at an additional £15.


www.rory.uk.com

Seems easier than trying to get them made somewhere else…

Hope this helps.

Richard

Give us a price.
I would like to have one as a pattern for a mold to make the perplex rear screens. I had a glass one in the early 70's that is in a car in Michigan, but lost the mold in a move and haven't been able to get in touch with the owner af the car.
regards,

I have, perhaps, the only real glass, rear window for a Marcos in the USA. I bought the rear window from the Marcos club in the UK. I don't know if they are still selling/making them or not. I was told that the glass windows were expensive because the sharp curvature on the ends resulted in a large number of these rear screens being broke during the manufacture. Regardless, I have a glass rear window on my 1966 Marcos 1800 GT that I am thinking about selling. I was told that this rear window fit all of the Marcos cars from 1963 up through the 1970's and perhaps beyond. I am going to make my Marcos into a vintage race car and I am going back to a plexiglass rear window to reduce the weight. Email me at mikedenman@sbcgloba l.net if you have any interest.
