I bought this and I am currently working towards getting her on the road
The sunroof does appear to leak, taped up with gaffer tape for time being to see if that stops leak, as a prelude to trying to reseal or find a new seal
Welcome and congratulations on the purchase. It may take a bit of work, but I'm sure it will be worth it and be great to see her back on the road again. Just be careful you don't leave that gaffer tape on too long. I made that mistake once and it was awful stuff to clean off. Have sent you a PM

Good luck with the restoration (still think a Webasto would look better ).
I look forward to seeing her at a show in the (hopefully) not too distant future.
Best wishes,
Mike.

Thanks, I may well end up going down the Webasto route if I can not seal the glass one, but I do quite like it

Sorry Nigel , when I said "I know of little more than that" ,Nigel Barnes wrote: ↑Sun Mar 21, 2021 11:08 amOk then, I'll bite, what more do you know, or is it a secret?
Thanks
Nigel
what I should have said is " I know nothing more than that "
