MK 'doublebubble' Aeroscreen

Has anyone here ever fitted/know if it would fit/tried to fit etc. the MK 'doublebubble' aeroscreen to an Avon?

I quite like the look of these and there's a couple available in the 'for sale' section at mo'.

should be able to work it out if you get some measurements, nice screen though!

Cheers, Shortie,

Was told that MK screen is exactly 100cm wide at bottom (where it sits on scuttle.)
Measured my scuttle which is 100cm wide approx. 6" below mid-point of top edge. (i.e. just below the curved side of scuttle)
How does this compare to the Indy?
Could you measure your scuttle width - I suspect it may be slightly wider?

Cheers,
Andy.

Leaping ahead a bit arn't we?

Hows it going Andy. I take it the engine is in . Have you got a propshaft in yet?

I've been using mine every day this week as some arse ran in the back of the Astra last week and its now in the shop. The LSD is great BTW and you certainly notice it on track days.

Hi Steve,
Trouble is, I can't resist a bargain and I've always liked the look of the MK screen.
As regards the prop, I bought one off this forum that was fitted to an Indybird.
Trouble is, its approx. 25 - 30mm too long but MK will shorten and balance it for £55 inc. carriage. So I'll be sending that off in the next day or two. (Like I said, can't resist a bargain!)
Have fitted a Polo rad and am in the middle of plumbing that in.

What is it with you and rear end shunts?
Unlucky or what!

Must come up and see you soon (pay for the welding etc.)

Andy.
