Hi Guy's / Girls ( Sure there must be some out there :)
 
Spend a few hrs trolling through the numerous fantastic finds and projects here, and also in the Escort Section. Where I'm really guilty of loitering
 
Brings / takes me back ... Or at times wishing I was actually back as I have owned a MKI Escort BDA in Black with forrest arches, and also a RS3100 in Blue and many Lotus Cortina MKI's
 
Havn't got much to offer, as there is so much info here.
What I can offer though with all these resto's happening, is Full Heated Windscreens for the Capri MKI ~ currently in stock ... Maybe Christmas being the ideal time to shout yourself one
 
Full ADR approval etc.
These may be of some use to those who would like to compliment their cars with something a little different.
 
Screens are made in the UK by Tyneside Saftey Glass and in stock.
Cost $585 inc GST
 
Freight expanded foam packed to all states and also O/Seas if need be.
 
Freight is fully insured and starts at $145
The only thing which may dis-appoint the purist is they have a blue sun band across the top !
 
I have a very long detailed disctription of the product warrantee / fitting etc, etc.
Rather than place here ... Can email to anyone with interest.
 
Having sold heaps of the Escort model I'm sure if your interstate ( I'm in NSW ) and need to look at one I can arrange this.
Heating element wires are very thin at a fifth of the thickness of a human hair.
 
Anyway ....
 
 
Cheers .... Del

Hi Guys
 
I purchased these with the view that they may sell ! as the Esky screens sell so well.
TBH only three have been sold in two years so i need to get these gone if poss.
 
As I am considering closing come the end of the tax year, maybe in anyone has interest I can supply these for the next 6 weeks or so or until stock has gone for $390 ea plus freight.
 
I am making the pilgimage  to Brizvagas in late Jan, so there would only be a freight charge of $40 instead of $195 if one is purchased and you live within 60 lkm of CBD
 
Anyway ...
 
Thanks and have a goodie to those who still have time on their hands this new year working on their cars

Wow heated windscreen and you haven't sold any... Lol. I'd be getting them cut down to suit another car.( if that's possible) .Not being rude but id be surprised if you sold one seeing à new glass is $160.

I'd be interested in one Del, it would be very useful in colder climates. I'll email you in the next week or two.

Thanks ... Not rude at all.
 
$160 ... Mate your being ripped of at that price !
Don't recall saying I had sold none at all, just poor amount of interest. As I have sold over 40 Escort MKI -MKII
 
Glass cannot be cut down ! but thanks.
 
Having sold 518 to date for all sorts of other models, I really thought I may have sold some after once owning a very quick Capri myself when a young bloke, but that was in a colder climate.
 
Obviously not for you ... As you " clearly " don't appreciate the product offered as stick on demisters are approx $80. Maybe you have not grasped the concept or the benefit of having one !

FWIW ....
 
I was racing at a historic event at Lakeside and it pissed down !
You know those rain storms you get up there. Over in 5 mins.
 
I had towed my car 1200 klms so sure wasn't leaving it in the paddock sheds 
 
So I went out to race after qualifying 3rd and followed a Lakeside specialist around as after two laps i had literally no vision. Coming down from E/Loop my little penis cried out .... Hey Del there's the pit entrance stupid.
Man I can handle it. All I have to do is use his tail lights for my vision so i stayed at it.
 
Next lap .... Going down into Hungry I felt the thudding of ripple strips and that was it .... Like a knob I had followed him off.
Bounced off the armco, and 16 years later I'm still taking morphine for my damaged back as two cars ran into me as I bounced back on the track.
 
As I was building a new race car about 4 years back I looked into getting oneor two for the guys racing Improved Production and one thing led to another, and I ended up with Motorsport Windscreens.
 
I only offered these as they are ADR compliant, and although these are predominately used for racing I have sold hundreds for road and Targa cars. Things are very slow and I offered these at a reduced price because of just that !
 
To get one out of the UK would cost $920 these days

Dell whats your track car ?Post some pics. Im 5min from lakeside .I was a member of L.M.R.E to helped to rally to get track reopened.Its still no and never will be a v8 supercar worthy track by today standards But its a great track to take your small ford for a strap legally as I've done. Its quiet daunting a couldnt image going 2 wide at flat strap . good luck with sales not too many race Capri's left unfortunately .
