I've asked this in the Morgan forum, but it's just occurred to me that a Caterham might work too.

Can anyone give me the dimensions of a Caterham Seven windscreen? With or without frame. Presumably the wide body version is, um, wider?

What else has a perfectly flat windscreen? Apart from a Defender.


Thx

True. I could do with a Caterham/Morgan thin frame though...

I could fabricate one, but if I'm going to do that, I could get a piece of glass cut to fit. If an off the shelf alternative is the right size, it'll save me the hassle

Approx.dimensions to outside of frame. Width:- Top 800mm, Bottom 890mm Height:- (centre) 295mm
These are only approximate because the top of the screen is radiused both sides and the bottom follows the curve of the bonnet/scuttle either side.

SV is as you would expect slightly bigger.
Top width 920mm ish
Bottom width (straight line from btm corner to corner) 1015mm
Height in centre 315mm

That was measured through the bubble wrap that it's in.
Pics available if it would make it clearer.

For the moment, that's probably all I need, thanks.
