Dave, You could do without the belts and do a tee shaped aluminum attached to the bottom of the glass with a slot in the bottom part with a bolt and speed nut. I think the pictures that Chris M. posted is the way to go. If you have a road car you'r really not worried about weight. If the glass is done in Lexan ,mouldings, regulars and harnesses would not add more than 40lbs to the whole car. It's just more convenient and look's...

Randy, Quite right. In my PM I have asked Dave to share his knowledge. I'm pretty sure there are a lot of guys out there interested in doing this mod All the best, Graham.

I must say, the mold lines on the SLC are very impressive. I'm coming from FFR ..... quality ......, so when Fran told me I could wetsand polish them out and I'd be golden, I figured 'yeaaaa, riiiiiiight'. (again, remember i'm used to seeing mold lines 1/2'' + tall that need to be ground out) Anyways, started tackling them today and they knock down like crazy. 4-5passes with 1000 10 passes with 1500 10...

Hi You will have to go for #2 sulution. Be sure you have the exsact same gelcoat colour to fill in. If you have that you will be able to sand the new gelcoat down to an even and homogen surface equal to the "old" surface around. You will not see the repair at all. Be shure to do this on an aeria that is lagre enough, so that you not get the same problem you have now on the edges of the fixing point when you sand it down. Regards Trond

Some radio locations in DRB's in Australia. Side "pillar" mount of stereo with TV in Steve Shedden's red car, door mount in the blue car (probably using a remote), and more common dash mount in the green car.

My father had a Lotus Elite (the one with the Coventry Climax engine) in the 60s and on that the side windows were removeable and could be stowed behind the seats. Nothing to do with windows, but I remember taking a friend for a ride in it and doing 100+ mph on the road to the North of the thames between Kingston and Hampton Court bridges - and perfectly legal, I think! Nowdays I understand that that stretch of road is heavily speed limited....

Rick, Those are VERY nice. I measured these this morning and they are also about 8" long.

The best way to do this would be with a power cable driven regulator. The manual crank type is not flexible enough. There are two types of Baily Moulding (H Type ) that goes into the window opening. The soft and the hard. The hard has a metal frame. The soft is wire re inforced like your seal in the trunk of...

Please DO post your information here on GT40s Dave... MANY of us are interested!

Wear old clothes(it's really messy),and change paper often.Use a guide coat( I use a cheap flat black spray bomb) Let the paper grit do the work-if you have to push harder then the paper is clogged or done. The harder you push, the more likely you are to getting waves in the bodywork.Also sand in diagonal directions and change directions often(puts less scratch marks into the surface that you will have to get out with the next grit)....
