Hi Frank,
 
I'll try and put something up this week.
 
The MCP2510 is only 2.91 and the 82C251 transceiver is 1.25 in one off quantities from Arrow Electronics. You need both to make a can bus interface. This is a non-isolated type but I do have an isolated version but this bumps the price right up by about 7 - 8 quid because of the DC-DC convertor.
 
The touch screen I built myself from a surplus LCD display and a low cost touch screen. Got the LCD for about 80 quid and the touch screen and controller for 105 quid inc. I have since added an LVDS receiver to the box to allow me to locate the LCD away from the CPU card by upto 12 metres. This cost of 43 quid inc.
 
If you are interested in the LCD's I know where you can get some for hopefully the same price as I paid.
 
Regards
Dave...

Hi Dave
            Let us know when you put the Can Bus stuff on site. Rummaged thru stuff i downloaded and found some app notes from microchip on Can Bus so started reading again . Are the chips expensive? Also is that your own touch screen on your site, expensive? .I installed one today on a machine (siemens) $10,000 .
