Opal Folding Roof
#1
Good morning.

Perhaps a daft question, but how does the folding roof on the Pearl, or whichever model it is, seal against the rear window frames to prevent the ingress of water and driving rain? Similarly, how do the sides seal to the roof? I am still very much in the planning stages for my special, but now having a wrecked Ruby shell, I am considering fitting it with this style of roof.

Thank you.

Just tension and a decent overlap of material over bodywork?

I have made a coupe of Pearl hoods - Mike is quite correct.

Thank you for the replies. I confess that I was anticipating something a little more elaborate. Still, if it works, why make it more complex?
