 Doing the right thing

The Morris cab roof has suffered, originally holes had been drilled in it to accomodate indicators and it has generally suffered from 64 years of rust.

I welded up the holes but that distorted the roof somewhat , taking keith's advice I cut out the troublesome area and welded in some fresh steel plates. the result is a lot more satisfactory.
