I think techie is right. Its an epic amount of work to do this, you have to be a bit metal to do it!

The site seems a lot more laid back these days lol I'd have had a slating 2 years ago if i done this.

Looks fantastic mate as always, you're certainly not shy with the fibreglass.

Fred, in a word, NO.

Huge amount of quality work gone into that car, which I can fully appreciate, but not looking to replicate the look.

Hopefully, anyway.

A judicious bit of Dremmeling and the roof is in three pieces

much props to you for giving this a try.

 

I cant even remember what your plan with this 3 piece HT is? was it purely so it can be stored in the boot?

That looks brilliant. Hopefully seals on the centre part won't be too obtrusive and spoil the effect. Will you need to add some sort of fixing to the centre panel to attach it to the car properly, when fitted?
