Post by nigel jarrett »

We are trying to reinstall the sunroof on the Jowett 10 it was sealed up and covered over years ago .Has anyone got any ideas as to the material that goes around the frame to stop the water leaking in .also what is used to make the sunroof well at the back .
What is the profile of the seal that goes along the leading edge of the rear panel any help /pictures would be appreciated
have just purchased a javilin and will need all the help i can get

Hi Nigel, pleased you're attempting to revive the sunroof. Have you asked Geoff as his 8 should be the same construction?

Just to confirm Jowett 8 & Jowett 10's both utilised the same bodyshell / door closures etc - although the styling of the front end panels were different - hence measurements / materials from a 8 sunroof should transfer to a 10 without issue
