Wanted, Vinyl Roof.....
......For a 262c if anyone can help or know if this is available anywhere. I have removed the old torn sundried brittle one off the car and will have either a new one made and fitted or if it works out cheaper to have a new one sourced and fitted?
Many thanks Peter |

I have no idea if that "part" is available, but I'd guess not.
A vehicle upholstry specialist might be able to help for a price, it's a fairly standard job but one that requires the windows to come out to do properly. If you're considering doing it yourself, Tolex is the closest material you'll find (cotton backed vinyl), oft used for covering old.guitar.cabinets. It comes in widths up to 54"/137cm, which should be wide enough for a roof. If you're doing it real cheap, Marshall in Bletchley will sell you Tolex off the roll from their spares dept cheaper than anywhere else. Three yards might do it... |

Yes I will remove all the glass and do as much prep myself, leaving the covering to an upholsterer. Cheers Peter |

Oh well, worth a try - thought "elephant hide" might have been a closer pattern than Everflex "wrinkle", but if it's good enough for Rolls Royce it'll probably do for a Bertone. Which colour Everflex?
