    Hi Guys Coming to the end of restoring my Classic. When replacing the material on the underside of the sunroof, the mechanic discovered that the headliner board was 'rotten'. Now the previously perfect looking headliner looks like a bedouin's tent. Would anyone know where I can get hold of a...

Unfortunately this means I now have to adopt the Italian style of driving position. Fortunately, I have the arm length for...
