The roof has become a puzzle



















What I thought was going to be the fast part of putting the roof on turned into a long day and not getting to oval section in. I was hoping to use the oval section I have which is about half of the roof but once the old was cut out and I set the new section in I could see the it was going to line up the way I wanted to. So it's back to piecing the side section in over the rear quarter window. Plus the roofs that I'm using are different years so there seems to be a little difference in some of the window frame size which had to be fixed so the glass fits right. I made a die from my other bug to get the right line for the rain gutter. This seems to be what everyone looks at when the car is done to see if you've keep the right lines on the car. Tomorrow I'll tackle the other side and try to get the oval section cut and put on as well.
