DOKA gutter rust

Rust rookie seeking advice. I've gone a bought a DOKA that's been sat for a good few years. What type of surgery is involved with gutter repairs? I'm got access to a workshop and loads of the small jobs I want to tackle myself but I'm not sure if I'm out of my depth here? https://uploads.tapatalk-cd...

Re: Westfalia pop top fitter?

Let me know how you get on. I didn't realise the roof was different. I've got a similar problem whereby the last owner has started to put a westfalia-style (not sure if it is proper westfalia) pop top on and kind of abandoned it half way with just the hole cut out from the middle sunroof. I'm tempte...

Re: Pop-top Resoration?

Is it a westy roof though? Its got the front lip where all the others i've seen have got the front lip missing. I've got the front section still to be fitted that someone has sprayed a crude silver. http://i316.photobucket.com/albums/mm348/mattwilde66/Syncro/Kryten/IMG_0032.jpg http://i316.photobuck...

Pop-top Resoration?

Does anyone know of any good places to get a pop-top restored? I've been mulling over what to do with mine. Its been put on (sort-of) in a bad way. I was tempted to get a little turret-top but I dont want to spend too much and I might make do with what I've got if I could get it looking half good. T...

Re: Sunroof / Westy Roof Mess!

Can't seem to find any markings on it apart from years of dirt! I wonder if it's an old Reimo pop top. It looks similar to the front

Re: Sunroof / Westy Roof Mess!

Aye if I do I'll give you a shout. I posted the same question on the FB T25 page and all I got was folk wanting the roof. All the proper westy roofs I've seen don't have the front lip where mine does. I'd mine just a different model? I've been looking at full length roof racks. Anyone know where to ...

Re: Sunroof / Westy Roof Mess!

Aye I've thought about getting a different pop top but I'm not sure. I prefer the tin top. I'm looking see if someones breaking a caravelle or maybe get another sunroof similar to the back one

Sunroof / Westy Roof Mess!

Hello all, The more I look at the bodged Westy roof on my Sycro, the more I want shot. Its been put on but never finished. The middle sunroof aperture has been cut out to gain access to the pop top but the canvas and struts were never fitted properly. I'm going to get shot of the roof but I wanted t...
