[QUOTE="kempy, post: 565551, member: 1076"] I have a smooth early roof on my 68 and had the same problem with the wood. I simply removed these sections and made exact copies from some hard wood (I used oak as my father in law had some large strips) After cleaning the fibreglass I glued these in stages using Gorilla Glue and clamps. To help the structure there is a metal bar that runs across the width that I believe was standard. Apart from that nothing else and I can honestly say that I've had no problems what so ever. If i felt the need to strengthen I would have done, however the thought had never crossed my mind to do so. Mike [/QUOTE]
