Hi all,

I've built and fitted my roof framework today, there's three pics at the bottom of page 4.

8 hours of cutting and welding tube, I'll be sneezing iron dust for a week. It's really rigid and will easily support the weight of the overhead panel, maybe a small block chev too! This was a good day...

Hi all,

I had a fly last night and the new roof is great, I have to climb out a couple of times to access the menu bar but I guess we all have that sooner or later. I will put another monitor off to the side on a splitter with the projector, that should get me around that little difficulty. I've added a couple more pics taken in daylight -

Nice work there. I like how you've fabricated the upper forward section.
