Anyone out ther have photo details of a welded on metal roof install. 916s are a bit expensive.
There are two that are done ( TC has, or had one ) that I know of. Any one with parts ? Was there a kit back in the '70s ? Any info /response is welcome. Rory |

I believe the one TC has/had was done by this fellow; http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?sho...=76305&st=0

I don't get it? If you weld the roof on, how do you remove it on a nice day? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)
