Is it a hard top only car, or does it also have a soft top?

My hood was kniffed a few months back and the car is going in for some major restoration post Le Mans... and I don't really want to drive to Le Mans/back with the hard top on! ^_^

I'll do my best to post a few pics.

The rear screen and seal are in good condition, the hardtop has opening rear quarters.

The soft top if I recal is ripped, I will try and open it up today to check.

Will take those off for you, I can deliver locally.

if no one else wants it i'll take the cylinder head, even though i have three.

other things would be the ignition coloumn switches for the wipers and indicators, they come off in two parts. also would take the petrol tank. But don't go to too much bother. Just whatever comes off easily.

do you want money for these bits?

i'll get in contact with my aunt and see if she can hold them for me to collect.
