1956 Karmann Cabriolet hood


Has anyone fitted, or know who has fitted, an early Cabriolet hood?

Soon I will be ready to have a go at mine, and I'll need all the help that I can get. All (sensible) suggestions welcome.

Cheers, Greg

Get a factory workshop manual, Steve will have one, they have a heap of info on the cab hood.

Otherwise I can give you some contacts that have done a few, aparently not too hard, for someone of your caliber Greg.

Hi Greg, talk to Boris when you see him on the weekend. He has done quite a few in the past and can also get you any parts you need.
