Hi All,
finally getting round to the restoration of my 34 RP. 
Mechanically been done , but now needs the body doing, not looking forward to this!
My issue is i'm unsure what the sunroof wood should look like. I think I have all the wood parts, not sure how they go together.
Has anyone out there got any good pics that they are willing to share to help me out
Thank you in advance

The archive is your friend - at least to give you an idea of assembly

And if you use Martin’s beautifully cut timber, the framework should look something like this...

Thanks, Ivor!

However, just to avoid confusion, Ivor's track set is leaning up against the wall and is not yet fitted to the roof!

Absolutely right Martin, here's one with the tracks and the vinyl installed at the rear!
