Wood Roof Kit - 1927 Tudor
Posted: Sun Mar 17, 2024 6:02 pm
I have purchased a wood roof kit for our 1927 Tudor but have come up with some questions before being able to move ahead with the assembly and installation.
Do I treat the raw wood to preserve it?
Is there any preparation needed on the steel body parts where the wood is to sit?
What fasteners do I use to put it together and also to hold it down to the steel body?
Is there a bedding / sealant material that should be used between the wood and the body metal?
Seemed like a simple process but I don't want to get it wrong by missing critical steps.
Many thanks for any thoughts,
Joe
