A motor vehicle body has a lateral roof frame 1, a sliding roof structure 2 and an angled connecting flange with webs 3.1, 3.2. At least one web 3.1, 3.2 is connected to frame 1 in a frictional and/or positive manner using at least one elongated hole 4.1, 4.2, which may have an open end and may be in the form of a keyhole. The connection may use threaded pins 6, 7 secured using nuts. A pin (9, Figure 2), which may have an undercut, may provide a further positive connection behind an elongated hole 3.1, 3.2; in an embodiment, these pins may be inserted first and threaded pins 6, 7 inserted subsequently. A plate-like roof element may be attached to structure 2, for example by welding, soldering, or gluing or by hem or flange pressing.
