    Does anyone have a contact for spare parts for these old spinner type Kent ClearViews?

    I've Googled them but no joy. About 15 years ago we managed to get some in Spain for a classic project but no more left.

    Any info?

    Hi,

    He was my 2nd Engineer at the time you had a wee accident on the way back to Antibes.

    Oh yeah

    That was a head through the windscreen job, I've done better ones since then.

    Rental cars and I don't get along. That summer the crew wrote-off 4 cars, the insurance premiums went up a tad after that season. :rolleyes:

    PS. I've just seen a perfect symmetry to this thread.

    Me stuffing my head into the windscreen and making a nice round hole and the Kent ClearView, both about the same size.

    Well done K1W1.

    Hi,

    If you hailed from Kent maybe you could claim a patent infringement.

    I am sure once ya bonce was thru the windscreen the view was a lot better than before it went thru, that is of course unless the Nasty Azzuro that caused the aforesaid accident hadn't affected your vision
