Not sure youll find a replacement, even if you manage to find one it will more than likely have a fair amount of rust in it...

 

Best bet would be to unstitch it and have it repaired............m2cw

You would be very lucky to find a NOS roof panel, Loui - you 'might' find one in the US.

 

The other way is to have an appropriately shaped panel made up to fit in the hole with a 'jogged' edge so that it can be plug welded/short riveted around the putside of the old opening.

I have the same issue, i Will be doing what lurch has sugested but i will  be glueing it in with panel bond and putting a  few small tack welds to make sure it dont move

hey guys

 

thanks for the response, problem about shaping a new panel or unstiching mine is mine is very rusted, and require a whole panel

 

i have same new pics in my build post that will show you the extent of the rust on the roof

You could always do what BenZed had done and bond on FG (in his case carbon fibre)
