WANTED, devon pop top roof

[vwcamper]

I am looking for a devon roof for my 1972 van

Not sure what the difference is but Silver on Latebay is breaking a 78? Devon

The later ones are one piece fibre glass if I remember, rather than the complicated earlier ones. I stand to be corrected though. Should fit

You got that spot on ^^^^, that`s what I got on mine and it took me ages to find one, I think the later ones look so much neater and fit the roof shape betterer :mrgreen: The lifting mechanism is a lot better in terms of operation and ease. Also they don`t look like a turtle humping the van. The downside is the vents get very brittle with age and if they ain`t replaced then they`ll need to be. Mine are mostly on the M5 :lol: They disintergrated en route to Lincoln or Leicester or somewhere starting with an L :roll: The earlier ones with the complicated fibreglass shroud and the almost flat ally roof were either leaking or just about to leak because of the rivets, design, etc etc :? I think the one peice fibre roofs on Devons started about 74 to 76 but seems like there was a bit of a crossover period as well or peeps have just replaced with what they could lay there hands on. :mrgreen:

Ozziedog,,,,,,,,,,,,, But it ain`t correct for the year ,,,,,,,,,, and ??? :lol: :mrgreen: :lol:
