Default Convert windshield to fairing?

Rebuilding 30 Corsa for an old school fun/poker run boat.
The original windshield is brittle and about to break up if handled much, thinking about using it for a mold/template to remake as a shorter carbon fiber fairing. Any thoughts or advise??

You sure that is a Corsa ? That boat pictured has more waves in it than A parade for the Queen of England.

Yes, you could use it as a template. Would be more reasonable out of 'glass and painted compared to C/F. Budget? If boat's in FL, I can take a look at it and give you some ideas. PM me! Bill.

I love to see old school south florida boats redone. Keep us posted with pics. You can get a new one made out of starboard or even aluminum.
