    Happy but Soggy 348 owner.

    After getting caught in a sudden down-pour yet again (third time this Spring (If you can call it spring)) without the roof panel I am wondering if there is a place to put it so I can take it with me. I have thought of making a bracket out of table legs and cable ties to attach it to the rear as a spoiler but I don't think it would look that good.

    I have tried putting it behind the seats but then with my 6ft 2inch build I have to drive with my knees round my ears.

    So any suggestions of what to do with the roof panel. or maybe I should just drive in a raincoat and carry a big umbrella.

    Grin, Harry

    Hmm.. maybe your seat does not go back as far as it should when the roof is behind the seat? Im 6-1 tall and I can fit in my 348 fairly comfortably when the roof is in. I acually never take it out of the car in case it rains. ..the 6 days a year that it rains in Arizona of course. Maybe check the seats or see if the roof is planted as far back as it can be on the floor?

    Bring two large umbrellas with you. They fit behind the seats easily. ;)

    I have seen a 348/355 targa top that is made of fabric and folds away for storage. Although I read that they are very rare and expensive.

    Here is my folder. Never have gotten it to fit perfectly, BUT it does fit perfectly on the back package tray when not in use.

    purchase my spare one thats on ebay in the UK, and section it into two pieces with a hinge and have it repainted to suit your car.

    Ferrari 355 GTS targa removable roof sunroof top | eBay

    half the price they normally go for due to it needing a refurb so an ideal one to chop up

    Happy to get a quote to ship to France.

    Non ebay price is £600 plus delivery
