A day of consolidation.  Only Bernard and I were there most of the day till Stephen joined us howefer progress was made.  We screwed the monitor ribs down into the cantraisl adn then fitted the upper roof rails to the tenons on the end of the roof sticks.  These were then clamped in position and we had chance to check the body for shape.  It turned ou that the centre pillars had bowed out by about 20mm with the pressure from the roof structure.  Load straps have now been used to get it back into shape and thee are going to be left in place for a week to let things settle.  Only mm of bowing to correct now. 

The first of the rubing rails was then trial fixed and after some trial and error about drill sizes the first few securing screws were dry fitted. 

Here is a picture of what the car looked like when we took it out last week.
