Going to a scrap yard to cut up discos

Hunting for roof cuts to repair 'Reds' roof.
Since Reds roof skin was beyond repair I decided to go to my local Land Rover specialist to see what they had in their yard. I remembered from my last visit that there were quite a few 'Romulus' Discovery's so my hope was to chop the rear out of one of them. Upon arrival I climbed around the heavily overgrown yard in search of a good roof, unfortunately I had no luck as every car was worse then Red! Just as I was leaving an idea crossed my mind, if a Discovery 2's rear door was the same, then maybe the rear of the roof would be the same too!


After some very precise eyeballing I decided the roof was exactly the same, up until the alpine windows.
(spoiler they aren't)
I ended up buying the whole shell of the Td5 for a very reasonable 100 pounds as the door pillars seem the same and are in very good condition which I need for '406'.
