    mystery wheel and soft top roof question

    Hello, I have recently bought a sumo unfortunately one of the wheels are damaged. The bolt holes have been enlarged because the bolts have been left loose. I'm trying to identify the wheel and find either a replacement for it or a repair. If anyone can tell me what type it is or has any info on repair or replacement that would be great. A picture of the wheel is at the following w w w.pistonheads.com/sales/largepic.asp?i=171839&noPics=6&current=3&make=KIT CARS&model=cobra


    Also if anyone has recommendations of glue type to use for attaching the soft top material to the windscreen mounting so that it is both strong and waterproof that would be great.

    Thank you for your help

    Hi and welcome, an impact adhesive such as Evo-Stik should do. Why don't you post the picture of the wheel here so we can see, a lot easier for us!
    Cheers, Clive

    There is a fine line between "hobby" and "mental illness."
    You don`t have to be mental to build a kitcar - but it definitely helps.
