Hi Dave.
Top centre of screen to rear deck/cockpit edge.....33.75- 34"
"B" post to rear edge of screen pillar where it passes through the body. 765mm
"B" post to rear edge of screen pillar adjacent to the top screen securing screw 640mm.

Many Thanks to everyone who has spoken or PM’ed me. So much knowledge and such a short lifetime to take it all on board.

Neil
Your way out of the ballpark, not even close.

Deck
I’m mucking around with an idea for altering a Cobra hardtop to suite my requirements, not building a bungalow.

Anthony
Totally agree why would I want to put a roof on an open top car?
If I wanted a roof I would have got a GT40, or a Daytona, or a Ultima, or a TVR, or any one of the bubble look alike cars.

Clarkson
You must stop Brian going through puddles, it fills his wellies up.

As I said I will want to cut it to bits to suit my requirements and I’m not really sure if my idea will work so a BIG thanks to everyone who has had input and thanks to DB, always good to talk thank you for your time.

Dave, I reckon you're making a coffee/dining table out of it.

Stop guessing.
If I were to be making a coffee table, then I can assure you, it would be a coffee table for the shed 'cos the lovely Lucy wouldn't let me get it anywhere near the bloody house.

You're going to cut it into sections and add various hinge mechanisms to make a fold-down hard top.
