They look original LR. There are no nasty rivet holes left where the strengthening bar would have been were it origionally a hard top

Thanks Bob

I've done these pictures to try and show where I’ve measured from as mine and your measurements differ

Could you take a look please?

There are differences but not a lot.

The interior side panels have some leeway in them as they butt up against two rear panels that you will also probably want. Top/bottom difference should be fine.

Shame you are up in Cheshire as it is a 5 minute job to remove one of the panels. If you were close to Somerset I would say pop round and we could test fit one of the panels.

Yeah that would have been handy!

Ok it's worth a shot, their are a few on ebay at the moment I'll have a look at, failing that I'll try that Lasalle that Killer 90 suggested

If you going to use the 90 for playing in. And not to make minty, you could just glue sleeping mats to the metal. Stops the rattles and condensation. And is very cheap.
