Hi m8 welcome to allmetalshaping looks like a nice place you've got there

Welcome Neil, I have seen your pics before and mailed you before too regarding the Beemer motor(I have a 740 motor in my 56 Chevy p/u)

What's the new screen from? Looks much better.

Ross.

Hi Ross,

The screen is for a Suzuki Cappacino ( not sure about spelling :) ). I scoured the internet for a second hand one and only managed to find 1 for sale, it was in Spain and they wanted £400 for it. I had previously contacted Pilkington glass regarding having a bespoke screen made ( big money :eek: ) but I knew they had a massive selection of bucks and patterns for other screens so I contacted them and they made me this screen in what ever colour I wanted for about £100 :D.

Is your truck up and running and if so hows the performance of BMW lump ?

Neil, that's interesting to note about the glass. Could be handy one day.
Took the truck to Billing and the Supernats last year. Very pleased with how it goes. Surprisingly good mpg too. At just over a ton the bonnet starts to balloon upwards worryingly(guess fifties trucks were not designed for that speed!) but it has plenty left at that.
Your roadster should be a handful with that in it.
