You will also notice it is a 1952-53 model without the firewall sidelights.

Yep I dragged it here, now it'll be the donor for my '52 :D

saw a great roof today, on (i think) an 86"...
its a custom roof that I think really suits the model, even Nay loves it!
will try and post a photo soon.

**EDIT**
and soon is now!

interested in hearing about what people think... But as said I love the quirky roof!

unable to locate any numbers/ ID plates to give me the numbers I crave!

as you can see it has had a tree branch fall on it but no apparent damage :D

I will try and contact the owner soon, I think I know who owns it !

any guesses what this may be from ?
(obviously cut and shaped to fit and sitting on the hood sticks)

Hi there

I like how its been formed around the original sft top hoops - and your right I have seen a few home made efforts and this is one of the better ones.

Well done.........

PS - I like the story of how you found it.....:nazilock:
Wayne

it looks pretty cool IMHO, would be interesting to see it all tidied up.looks like it is fairly straight.

Wayne,

Cheers, I do like it but I dont have an 86 to fit it to.......yet :twisted:


I agree its a ripper and although slightly rough its a great look. Didnt get right into/onto it but its now on my list!

I think the full story of its being located may not be for publication :angel::D

Hey Wayne.... One more thing... slow down as you finish of your emails OR I'll start calling you WHYANNE the way you spelt it!!:p:twisted:

Cheers
Digger
(yep, I checked the spelling of my name twice before I was game to post this!!)

Hi there digger

Woooooop's - must have been a bad day when you have spelt your name wrong.............its been fixed.

I agree - the full story has been censored......:nazilock:

Enjoy your day

PS - i have an 86, and know where there is another missing its engine.

Wayne (correct spelling as check it twice)

Amongst my collection I have from different sources, a full length hardtop panel and a pair of sides for a 80" and I am looking for a canvas to suit a 86"/88" series 1.

Hmmm this is starting to look like a ad, but if I call it barter is that better?

Can someone help me here with the wording? As then I can edit it to be politically correct, I really don't want to upset the camp by creating a posting that gets up a nose or two.

i personally prefer the rag top, but i took the opportunity to get a hardtop for the 86 inch i did have a rag top on it but it wasnt in the best of condition( very faded and came apart at the stitching, but it was still ok), i am sure you can get them new from a few places. I personally would love a hardtop for an 80inch
