Help!! Roof rail corrosion and repairs

[RichardBTek]

Hi All

Just wondering if anyone can possibly help me with an issue I have regarding the ongoing and final push of the body restoration of my 70 911T?

Following of the removal of what was left of the roof, I've been faced with some fairly serious corrosion and missingness of the inner roof rail strengthener on both sides at the back of the car (see pictures). Has anyone got any reference pictures of this area of the vehicle which might give me an idea of how far down the 'C' pillar this absent bit would travel and also what it looks like around the upper rear screen aperture?
Internal routing of the sunroof drain tubes would also be helpful if anyone has pictures of these as well?

Many thanks

Hi

You could speak to Barry Carter or Alan Drayson. Barry carried out the repairs to Alans car in the thread below. The restoration thread is on DDK.

Thanks for the kind words, I will pass them on to all involved in this project.
Barry is doing a great job on this shell. Oh, the next car on the jig is a RHD SWB car.

Anyway, the 2.2S is progressing well. From the last set of pics the roof rail is in.



The left front inner wing require alot of pre prep work



Most of the flanges needed to be repaired, before the new inner wing was fitted.





Attention then turns to the rear inner wings, inner sills etc



Thanks

Alan

Thanks John.
The problem is what goes on at the bottom near the engine lid area. I'll have a look at the thread and message them.

Cheers

I had exactly the same problem but on the other side...... The pages references give some before and after which might be helpful.
