Roof fabric replacement

Hi,
Can anyone please suggest a company who supply replacement fabric roofs. I have the roof assembly but the material is ripped.
Car is a Porsche 911 convertible 1979.

Thank you.
Phil.

Re: 1958 Porsche 356a coupe RHD.

Just a brief update.
Applied for the certificate of authenticity from Porsche which arrived this morning. (Took them 6 weeks!).
The car has matching engine and gearbox.
So, that's good news.
Phil.

Re: 1958 Porsche 356a coupe RHD.

A brief update: Got her up on my 2 post lift, looking a lot better than initially thought. New floor and sills have been welded in and looks a cracking job, most if not all of the other panels required appear to be there too. Also, I have one complete engine with all components plus 2 other spare en...

Re: 1958 Porsche 356a coupe RHD.

Thanks Bootsy, but is the hourly rate more expensive for 356 cars?! Seems a bit racist to me :-)

Re: 1958 Porsche 356a coupe RHD.

Thanks again, One thing confuses me, which I seem to hear a lot is the huge costs associated with bodywork, I don't get that. I will be getting some sheets of mild steel and putting my mig to use, but how can this be so expensive? Am I missing something here? I maybe a little fortunate as I have mos...

Re: 1958 Porsche 356a coupe RHD.

Hi Roy, Thank you. Yes fortunately I do have a cracking workshop, and lots of room and facilities. I also have a friend who has a 356, and I jokingly asked him for a lend of his (as you do!!) while I restore mine. He said yes too but we'll see if that materializes. Though i'm not sure if his is an a...

Re: 1958 Porsche 356a coupe RHD.

Hi, Yes I agree and I would hate to break it for parts. Just weighing up options. I think I will do what I can with the resto myself, and ship out the engine and box to people with the knowledge. Where can I get some drawings for dimensions? I have some major works to do re the front end and chassis...

Re: 1958 Porsche 356a coupe RHD.

Thank you, yes some food for thought. I'm capable of doing the work myself so profit could be there, however finding the time do it "correctly" could be a problem for me, at the moment. One other thought (and please don't shoot me down), I mean no disrespect to the car or the forum but cou...

1958 Porsche 356a coupe RHD.

Hi All, I have just become the owner of a 1958 Porsche 356A coupe RHD, and I may sell it. I bought the car without knowing too much about it, admittedly I did view it but at the time I didn't actually expect to buy it so I didn't really pay enough attention. I have restored several cars in the past,...
