Hey Guys,
Thanks for all the advice which really helps. I had a set of side curtains which were used when the aluminum was being cut to position the windscreen and to do the final shaping of the whole cowl area. With the curtains in the door frames I wanted them to tuck in right behind the windscreen post as the door closed. The stud holes in the rear deck were drilled based on a documented template which I still went back and verified. The rear bow mounting position is a given due to the chassis. These are a fixed element. The top I have is a Robbins top I got from them 30 some years ago so I want to see how this lays out. Had good results with there tops back then when using them on other cars. I think I will try working both front and back together before I start punching holes or glueing. I want to get a good taunt fit to avoid as much flapping of material as I can. Have been in cars where it seems like the material is about to blow off although I am sure a lot of that has to do with repairs to body from accidents over the years which alters to attachment positions or body contour. Anyway will let you know how it comes along.
Hey Nick, Thanks for the link. That was a lot of good information. From that I see ERA does supply the front bows even though a message from them last week said they didn't carry them.
Thanks again
Regards,
AJ
