So does this include seals and latches for 895 or is it 895+ seals and latches? Are the the latches stock, custom or either? Also, can I pick up from your shop since I am down the road in Portland?

I'd love one of these, but no way I can get in on this group buy. Maybe next year...

The $895 is complete. The latches I make, and the seals. I added the option for you to use your latches to save some cash. It all adds up.

Pleas note that these roofs were molded off the late style roof. I don't think the front latches are interchaingable, so you may need thelate style. I never tried the early ones as I don't have a set.

And YES, I'd be happy to hand you over a roof. I'd prefer it to packing and shipping.

Here's some close ups ov the mounting areas on one of the roof's I've got sititng around. Unfortunately it's a little dusty here, but you get the idea. We will provide the roof drilled and tapped for the factory holes. You will need to provide latches, and rear mounting points, as well as the mounting hardare.

Okay, so $720 is the GB (Group Buy) price and knock off 75 for no latches. Can you post a pic of your latch solution?

I so want one of these! For me this would be the "icing on the top", (pun intended), of my project. Every piece I have purchased from Mark has been top notch and the accommodations he has made regarding shipping to my location have been above and beyond. I hope these will still be available when I am ready! Thanks Mark.

So that I can properly budget for this, do you anticipate these being ready in July or August?

Thanks

Interested, but in the uk...

I do have a commercial customer that had expressed interest in bringing a few over, so maybe we can bundle these together?

Airfreight is about $450, and 3-4 roofs would fit well into one shipment.

Maybe something could be worked out?



Any more news from this 'Commercial customer?'

The material I'm using I'm buying in bulk, one of the reasons for the group buy. So, I wouldn't say no, but it would add to cost. I can look as see what I can find, but last time I checked it was not readily available. I do know that Hoyland would probably like one if I could get it, so maybe 2, but I still have to find some.

hasn't committed yet, but looks promising. I have been able to get the crating cost for packing down to $45 for the eccorrates, and have them made so they will be under the 3x overcharge where they really hit you. So the cost is coming down.
