Countach OEM Shape Side Glass - Expression of Interest

<< < (2/2)

Linlor:
All;

We have been on this adventure for a couple years now but we have finally come up with a possible Countach side window glass package.  This glass package will contain the two three-piece side window glass pieces only.  That is six pieces all together.  It has been a bit of an adventure but Sienna USA has secured the ability to reproduce oem glass shape and size.

The pieces will be oem size and shape (compound curve) and the lower window pieces will have the mounting holes and all pieces will have dot correct markings.  Now, through an exhaustive (and exhausting) search we have determined that there just isn't tempered compound curve glass available in small quantities like we would need.  These windows will be laminated and hardened glass.  There have been various opinions on laminated vs. tempered glass for side windows and the truth is, we just can't find tempered side glass with compound curves. 

Discussion on the search and questions/answers are available in this other thread http://www.madmechanics.com/forum/technical-discussion-question/18347-countach-diablo-windscreens-side-glass-4.html

This thread is to gather expressions of interest to see if there is a big enough market to make the production worthwhile.  Some money has been spent already on  preparation but the big bucks to get jigs made and sets produced has not been spent yet so we are looking for rough numbers to see if it make sense to do.  We don't have pictures of the finished product yet but these would be made from the same company that produced Sienna USA's last batch of single curve side glass a few years ago so we know they are very good quality.

Please reply with expressions of interest to purchase if these were to be made.

Thanks
Don
