The Sunroof Clip
I figured, since this car will NEVER be "original" due to the extensive patchwork I'll be doing, why not make it like I want it? So,... I found a Sunroof clup to install into it.
This is a clip of the roof section of a cloth sunroof Beetle. (obviously without
the cloth and some of the parts missing)
From the front
From the rear
from the side without the mechanism.
Here are the parts that make the sunroof work, minus the rear piece.
This is a closeup of the right corner of the lead bow.
Middle of the lead bow.
More of the lead bow.
Left side of the lead bow.
these are the long rails (tracks) for the sunroof. This would be the back edge
of these rails.
Middle of the rails
And the front edges of the rails.
Here are the rails as seen from the front of the car.
Detail of the "B" Pillar. obviously not a semiphore model.
these are the back pieces of the sunroof rails.
