Actually I think it's a Jaguar XJS screen..

But the car is a Mercedes-Benz 300SLR 1955 replica made in glass-fibre with a Ford 302 cu in V8 engine and C4 transmission by Thoroughbred Motor Cars of Florida.
I believe it's one of 12 built:

Yes. Locked for you to find the builder.  My source doesn't say anything about the windscreen
