Another RW Miura.....with issues

[moston100]

Got this one in a joblot off ebay, however both front and rear windscreens have issues. Would it be best left 'as is' or could I get Autoglass to fit new screens for me.

I have replaced the screens in a 75b Ferrari without removing the baseplate, The same method should work on the Miura.
Break all of the glass out of your Miura.
Get another Miura with ok glass to use as a donor.
remove the baseplate from the donor and drill out the glass retaining rivet.
Snap the glazing in half across the rivet hole so you have a complete rear window and a complete windscreen.
The rear window should inserted through the windscreen opening, slide it into place and using gentle force push the front end up behind the window retaining rivet.
The windscreen can be fitted by using the same method but you may have to file the lower corners of the windscreen to make it fit through the windscreen opening.

Thanks for your detailed reply Nick and I might give it a try although as Hugh pointed out to me, having a htf toy even in this condition is better than not having one at all.

I have done this same repair to one of mine,its easy to do especially if new glazing and casting are warmed by a radiatior first

The miura with its new glazing looks a lot better, thanks for the tips/methodology guys.

It does look better but looks like you forgot to clean the interior while windows were out -a soapy q tip would have freshened up those seats
