Please Sir!
Jonathan
Your efforts to rebuild the HUP are extraordinary and the preservation of a less common vehicle is to be commended. Could you please post some pictures of the profile the of the re-enforcing channels that support the roof. Gord

Thanks Gordon, very nice of you to say so. I hope that these are ok, obviously deeper sections in the rear and shallower in the front. The worst parts to form, were the radius sections, I tried several methods and in the end made some rollers for a pipe bender. Unfortunately it deformed the centre slightly but it was the best that I could do without press tools.
Regards, Jonathan

Hi Pieter,
The hatch size is 51 1/8" x 39 1/8" The hole is 37 3/4" x 49 3/4" I made the profiles and then bent them, I tried several methods and that was the best that I could come up with. As you know its a labour of love and HOPEFULLY mine is nearing completion ready for me to start the next one, ha ha. Jonathan

Progress has been a bit slow but its coming. I have been working on the wiring, which is complete and working now. Its all done with cotton covered wire and to the wiring diagram but I have added a fuse box. The horrible bit of modern wiring, that will be hidden under the steering wheel, is a 12v-6v transformer for the horn. I have connected it with blue connectors so that I can't get the 6v and 12v systems mixed up in the future.
