Dreaded roof lining.I had no support bars and couldn't get any from anywhere so I used 4mm carbon fibre rods from a kite shop and drilled hole in the ends for the cable wire.[frame]

Well done. An extraordinary achievement. Most of us would have given up! Actually, most would not have even started
You must have had great determination. Your panel supplier must have loved you!
Hope you are now able to get pleasure from using the car on the road where it belongs

Really super job!! Ive never saw anyone replace the crossmember on the bulkhead before, the car must of stood for a seriously long time. It goes to show what can be done with any minor with some serious dtermination.
Hope to see you at some of the shows to get a look
