Early 1800S

This is an interesting 1800 - an early Swedish built model. You see less of these than you do the Jensen cars. Strangely it has what looks like a sunroof frame inside the car but there is no sunroof.

It would be interesting to see the top of the roof, looks like the sunroof might be 'filled in'. Is it my imagination or are prices getting silly and out of reach for many people?

I might be wrong but i think the Websato sunroof was an aftermarket accessory available only from Webasto dealers - the insert in the headlining looks to be from a Webasto equipped car.
No sign of a Webasto on the roof panel so i wonder if it's had a replacement headlining or was part way through a planned retrofit of a used Webasto?

Either way, it's certainly a hefty price tag for what appears to be a car in need of full restoration!
