MG Midget and Sprite Technical - Ashley Hadtop

Can anybody help, would i be right in thinking that a cover / parcel shelf? was produced by Ashley to cover the boot contents that can be seen through the rear window. Anybody got any pictures or mesurements.
Any thoughts.
Thanks John

Yes there was a parcel shelf.
I don't have the measurements but if you have the top already, you have a ready made template (I would have thought).

Hello John,

Yes there was a parcel shelf, and I was lucky enough to get my hands on one. It's vinyl covered hardboard and makes everything look so much more complete.

It's a bit tricky to dimension - all curves - so drop me a line at mark.harrisATincusav.com (Replace the AT with @) with your postal address (wouldn't recommend putting your address up on a public forum) and I'll post you out a template.

Cheers,
Mark
