what material did u use for the top rail.
hood looking good - but i guess it wouldn't be used much :) - if you're anything like me the car only comes out on sunny days :)

I got some dense rubberised foam to fit in the top rail, trimmed and fitted it to size then revoved it and covered it with some original Navy vinyl from the original rear seat :) recycling :)

How green are you then Gary :wink:
I think all Marina owners should get a tax back for being so green and environmentally friendly :D

well took the Mumford to a local car show today, quite a good turnout of about 200 cars, Mumford managed to pick off the competition from the Capri's Cortina's and Escorts tho as it won its class of the 70's vehicles :)

When people actually see a good one they start admitting they were just as good if not better than other cars of that time.
Well done mate.
I had the same result when my car stole 1st from a Crayford MK3 cortina 8)
Must be your turn now :wink:
I will be happy to take a back seat :)
And the front 2 as well :P
