Evening all, im looking at bidding on this roof for a mk1 capri that i am restoring. Can anyone say if it looks fit for the job? I know the preference is to have as much of the pillars left as poss. This only has the front from what i can make out. Any thoughts anyone? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/181373419264?ssPageName=...

Cheers!

For the <£30 it's currently at, it seems like a no-brainer, assuming it's not a million miles from you.

Very, very little of the B-pillars, but they don't appear particularly strong anyway.

IIRC they were joined a bit further down the C post then leaded.
The roof for sale looks very good, as others have said, they are a bit thin on the ground, I would go for it at that price, you can always find some B and C posts somewhere and join them .
