Thanks

I can sort either of you out with a roof too. 54 Oval. You need to take the whole shell though.

Thanks for your reply guys, the 50's roof with the semaphores and the one with the sunroof sound interesting, I'm in tassy but I don't mind freight.
But I would like pictures, I bought some "A" pillars from a reputable VW parts dealer in vic and frankly they were rubbish, had some of the worse mig patches that I've ever seen.
And thanks again for your replies.

Actually I'm interested in all the roofs, I just would like some pictures to check the condition.
And I don't have a problem with taking the entire shell and with frieghting them from anywhere.

The roof wasn't that bad on her was it Glen? Can probably help find you one mate.

Nah mate, this isn't for Wilson, got in another car to do some practise on, I'm learning all I can about car body work.
I'll be picking up an english wheel and some other sheet metal gear soon so I can learn to do more.
