Hi All, it's a long shot but I am restoring my Coupe in Perth, Western Australia and need a front screen for her, can anyone advise where I may find one locally? I can get a second hand one from Interstate but the chances of it arriving here in one piece are slim.

Pilkington Glass, who originally made them still have the mould and it is possible to buy a new one. I suggest you make contact with a local screen supplier and see if they can obtain one. Some years back I had a brand new one fitted on my insurance after mine broke. Cheers Ray

Hi, Thanks for the information, I have been in touch with them but the price to get it to Perth is as much as the screen, by a miracle I have found one in Perth by putting an add on the Rover Club Facebook page, I cant believe there was one in Perth!
