All lies.
Unless the frame has rotted away.
I drove mine minus the roof all through the Christchurch summers - to and
from to Akaroa.
Good times, good times.

I am in wellington.... The car is two tone powder blue and surface rust....
but
very straight and the interior is brilliant!
Hey someone once told me that if you took the roof off the saloons for
awhile
the car would bend.... any truth to this?
Quoting sinclair@degenkolb.com:
I owned a white herald 13/60 in NZ in the early 90's - where are you
located? You never know.....
If it has a lot of miles on it also check the rear trunnion bushings.
With
car jacked, the wheel off, and the handbrake on, try rotating the drum -
if
it moves significantly then the trunnion needs to be replaced.
Good luck.

Subject: Herald Rear end
Hi,
I have just purchased a 13/60 herald. it has been sitting for a couple of
years. i was told that the u/j's were alittle gone but i am not so sure,
just thought i would pop a message out to ask what i should be looking for
at in the rear? (i know U/j's) Does anyone have a diagram about how the
rear
end should look? the noise its making is kind of a clunk clunk, but its
hard
to tell exactly as the brakes are rubbing as well. It appears to be more
on
the rear left side.
Cheers
Shane
