Keith and list,

A long winded question was blocked - so here is the shorter one, as roof
chopping is almost impossible to undo.

Does the inevitable 'leaning' of the A, B and C pillars inwards (towards
the front to rear centreline of the vehicle) of roof chopping a modern car
body contravene the "unaltered in width or contour" class requirement for
Competition Coupe?  

The Contour (part) is explained by a special case note in the definitions -
but what about the width?

(Just flagged up the likely next project after the boat!!)
