Thanks for prompt replies.
Having spent an hour this morning in my lovely cold garage trying to get my head round how everything fits together and reread your comments and also the attached file to an earlier post by Denis Sweeney l would concur that bolts were fitted at the back of the track rail and also the very front on both sides.
So, as stated by Martin can now build up the whole of the roof section as one unit and drop the whole thing into the opening. I wasn’t sure about the rivets but having examined my roof opening there is no evidence of screws ever been used to secure the rails section to the opening.
My build has taken 25 years so far, would be great to get it completed for next year’s centenary!
