Just not sure I can shape the complex contour without fucking it up.
So I got Paul's door skin mocked up on an early door. ( Don't worry the steel skin was beat to shit) I got the early wind up pieces and channel guides without felt. ( I need some of this stuff). How do I shape the Lexan so it will stay. |

I know a guy that makes lexan windshields and rear windows for 356's.
He made a plywood oven with fiberglass insulation that runs on propane- you only need 350-400 degrees. he lays a slightly oversized piece of lexan right on the glass and lets it melt. You could also hit up a local powdercoater for a little oven time. Research the temperature, I haven't talked to him about it for over 5 years and my memory isn't what it used to be. |
