Keep it as it is, good for stealth camping 
or sell it and buy one with windows! There's so few uncut panels around, it would be a shame to spoil another

Re: should i leave it???

Re: should i leave it???
I'm with Matty O. Keep it a tin top but put a full length rag top in it.
I think Golde used to make them for type 1's and type2's.
What are them rims and the colour. It looks lush!!
