Hi, Leesta that's me for the screens, I've got a couple in stock.
Come on over to the GTM Forum for spares, how easy it'll be all depends what you need!

Dino, are your screens for the GTM Coupe or the Cox GTM ? As I am after a Cox GTM one for my 67.

The screens were moulded off my Heerey, they've been sucessfully fitted to later cars as well as a few earlier Cox's. - But not one as early as yours to my knowledge.

There are a few variations to the cars over the years:
A few of the very first Cox's had a different roof line where the screen meets, in plan view it was straighter across the roof - the 1st pic below should help you check that. If it's different here you'd have to modify the roof a bit, I believe it's about an inch or so.

Then the roof line was raised a bit, the close-up shows the bigger (1") return on my Heerey, the screens have been fitted to cars with a smaller return without problem. Some of the later cars appear to have an even bigger return - again this hasn't changed the screen shape.
