|
|
Hi all, just need a bit of advice.
I am going to look at a potential purchase of a Series 1 Morris 8 at the end of the week and need advice. The car I am looking at has been described as a 2 door fixed head, I presume this describes a car with no sun roof. The photos of the inside of the car show no opening but photos of the roof outside show a vinyl sun roof cover, is this correct, is this just decorative or has the sunroof been sealed up?
Thanks, Paul _________________ Enthusiastic amateur classic car nut. |

Saloons of that era generally did not have 'solid' tin roofs. The centre part featured the type of vinyl cloth covering you describe, as shown below.
