    curtain / window size

    Hiya I made curtains for a friends bus and they were 21 drop and 52 wide before pulling the header tape string. It's a handy width because most fabric comes in 54 wide :) He just wanted them for the side windows and one curtain across the rear window so there were 5 in total. I know if you...

    My 71 sunroof deluxe and a question

    Thanks for your reply Graham I've not got much further with the roof apart from pricing up the parts from K&K totaling an eye watering £500 :shock: However I haven't given up on the idea of keeping it a sunroof either. I'm in Durham which I know, even with my dodgy geography, is miles away...

    My 71 sunroof deluxe and a question

    Thanks Rich I'm fairly sure the panel itself is sound, unless there's something nasty when I finally unbolt it! I didn't know about the drain holes :shock: !! So I'll defs look at them. The headlining is wrecked and going to be replaced either way, not sure that there's water damage but it's...

    My 71 sunroof deluxe and a question

    As I am now the proud owner of a Californian import, '71 sunroof deluxe :) (and have been hiding here for a while reading pretty much every thread!) I thought I would say hi, post some pics and ask a question. Firstly, here's Bernie while he was still at FBI where I got him from at the...
