Fast Cars can do it. Remember how they fitted mine? Sand bags and direct sunshine/heat "bent" the glass into submission. Amazing. If I recall, Glass Seekers sent me a GTB windscreen but Fast Cars made it work. I had my doubts but Craig was right. They do it all the time with vintage Ferraris.

Mark I actually spoke to the guy who did your windshield way before he did yours, he does sounds very confident and have done a lot of unusual shape and size glass for different cars as he told me in the past.

I haven't closely examined a GTS vs. GTB a-pillar, but it wouldn't surprise me at all if they are different. The GTB a-pillar is part of the roof structure and ties the front and back of the car. The GTS a-pillar has to be able to (theoretically) support the weight of a rolled car all on its own with no help from the roof and b-pillar. I wouldn't be surprised at all if it was different at the base and in cross section. This is just rumination, I don't have a GTB handy to examine. I'll bet that Rutlands and Ferrparts and whoever else regular takes Sawzalls to 308s would know for sure.

I was told by a UK specialist that the pillars are angled differently on the GTS when compared to the GTB.
Allegedly the GTS pillars are more upright to enable easier ingress and egress to/from the car.
