    Subject: Europa kit
    Hi all, I have been asked by a former member of the Europa fraternity to make it know that he has an uncompleted kit No 538 Europa available due to his ill health. The kit was at the time a fast build kit with flying controls already factory finished to just before the filling stage. The cockpit module is also factory finished but not installed. The kit is complete except the firewall forward. If anyone is interested in taking on this build then please contact Zef on his mobile (UK) 07958 762687. Zef is currently in Spain but the kit is located in the London area. Many thanks

    From: "spcialeffects" <spcialeffects@aol.com>
    Hi all. I am building kit #165, a classic, which I bought 3rd hand with only the fin started. As I have built my Europa from scratch I have included all mod's, inc the hi-top. Now as part of that mod a new deeper windscreen is used. Lately I have wanted to fit the "cat flap" style window vents for more fresh air into the cockpit and have been looking closely at my glass and have found that all of my original plexiglass is a darker "bronze" colour that that supplied from Europa for the hi-top mod. I contacted Karen and have sent my glass to her and she confirms that my original glass is darker but says that it wasn't supplied by Europa. She went on to say that she is 99.9% sure that graham singleton supplied glass, along with other parts, in the early day's and that it must be those that I have. So what I'm really asking is 1- Mr Singleton, if your browsing could you confirm you did or didn't make glass in the early days and if so WAS it darker, 2- does anybody want to buy the set of glass to help me off set the cost of replacement side windows and 3- does anyone have bronze 1460 (the official name for the colour) side windows they want to sell? Many thanks Frank Xuereb Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=447375#447375
