help leaky roof (1 Viewer)

[Tysano]

Hey all, I'm new to the 55 club. I'm on my third 40, but but had a chance to join the 55 club for $800 so. Anyways any tips on roof rot, the truck runs and drives great I had to put a clutch slave and go through the brakes oh and a $4 fuel filter and she's on the road. The problem is I'm afraid that she is going to be a convertible if I get over 55 mph dose any one make a clip for the roof or am I going to have to fabricate the parts myself.View attachment 1165937View attachment 1165937 View attachment 1165940

Youll need to rebuild the skin of the roof on the edges, the guttiers, the inner structure. Have a look at my thread "New french pig".
much much work.

Best advise yet. Replace the roof. Yours is really too far gone.

Just find a strong less leakey moss and grow that in there.

You could start a new fad, go green!

Would that make it a hybrid pig? part plant, part pig. You might be on to something the new Toyota prius 55

Chia pets are cool!

 

[Tysano]

OK all thanks for the help, I found a complete roof and will be replacing the moss with sheet metal I will take pic and post my progress, the chia-pet idea is out would have been cool but we are having a drought here in California so it probably wouldn't have survived.

 

[scrapdaddy]

Yeah, wouldn't want to get turned in for watering your roof!
