Dutton Phaeton Aeroscreen

Bit of a strange question, but does anyone know of a aeroscreen that would fit a Dutton Phaeton S2?

The scuttle is approx 39" across, would the ebay fibreglass screen fit ok? How easy would it be to chop 5" off?

Thanks

Hi Rich (I've just authorised your account over on duttonforums btw - very sorry for the delay)

The problem I think will be the double bubble will look a bit out of place atop the s1/s2 scuttle which is rather angular along with the bonnet sides.

I've seen pictures of homemade perspex version but then that has gone the opposite way and it too 'blocky'

The ideal item would be somewhere in between the two imho.

Cheers

How about an MK aeroscreen?

It's a little bit less rounded but not too square.
