FS Early Fibreglass Front Guards

Turbo54 - July 27th, 2009 at 09:36 PM

Hi All,
A friend and myself has been developing a set of moulds for early type one guards for those wanting a set of perfect early guards and not wanting to fix the rust and dents that come along with them.

These were moulded of my perfect 54 guards and have turned out very nice. They can be layed up in thick, normal or lightweight as the ones you can see here. We just have a few little nicks I would like to touch up around the headlight bucket and then we are good to go.

The cost is around 220 per guard but it would be better to call the person who is actually selling them.

I think if these are going to continue to be sold into the future, this thread should be a 'sticky'.

Great work!

How do I make this a sticky?

Also widened fronts and 2" widened rears also coming very soon. Final fitting 2" rears tonight.

oorsum, i'm so over rust!!........won't be long and i'll be ordering a set. especially love the recessed horn grill as i have some blinkers that will fill them perfectly :cool:

tell Barry they look great and don't forget you'll need some sort of tab at the top of the headlight bucket to to monunt the headlight off

can we get a special NSW mould done with the headlight buckets raised a couple of inches :lol:

........that'll trick em!

Turbo54 - July 28th, 2009 at 02:24 PM

Very funny, i will mention the raised buckets.

DieSchnelleKafer - January 23rd, 2011 at 07:14 PM

hey turbo54, i ordered a set from barry a while ago (more than 15 weeks) and well there hasnt been much indication that they are being made, do you know if he is still in the business and do u know if he is making them anymore, apparently hes up in america or something.. i cant get hold of him

Adsman - January 23rd, 2011 at 07:30 PM

sweet looks good

Turbo54 - January 24th, 2011 at 10:24 AM

Hey Mate,
I have not spoken to him for a few weeks and I am waiting for a set of rears for myself in the same batch. I will call him and get his butt into gear. The last I heard was that yes he is still making them, the guy who lays them up got a really big contract worth mega bucks and hasn't had time to do Barry's guards.
I will see and post on here.
Thanks
Heath
