It looks superb. Good luck with the work. Looking at the photo with the taller of the two men using the grinder, it looks like you have fabricated a new roof panel for it. Top skills! Did you use a wheeling machine to do the compound curves on the corners?

Answer to your question yes we did, it was found to be the easiest way!.

These are old pictures it was actually restored in 2001.
