Roof pins
My Cobra has a roof that I have been securing to the body with a couple of c-clamps for some time now. I have always thought of doing it right with some pins but just haven't found the down time to do it. But now, since my run in with the rock on the way to Globe, my car is in the shop so I want to get this done.
Does anybody know what kind of, and where I can get the right pins to do this?

Rick, My car's hard top is held on by two bolts rather than pins. It clips on the windscreen and is secured with bolts just behind the doors.. or should I use the past tense here.. Ha!Ha!Ha!..
Ya'll have a good time this weekend.. I'm going to make use of my time off. I think I'll work..

No. That's not what was shorter.. it wasn't the car.

Hard top bolt / Screw
Gordon Levy made a screw  that goes in very nicely and secures the top. Easy to do. Front part does what other email said. Slide screws in track on windshield. |

Roof pins thank you
Thanks guys for all the info. I'll forward the information on to the body shop.
I'm having the work done at Scott's Coach Works. After I talk to them again I'll decide if I have confidence in them doing the work.

RICK....Harry, who does all the work on the Cobras at Scotts Coach Works, can be trusted with any job that you hand to him...He's a very unique mechanic and builder and can trouble shoot like you cannot believe...He's one man that knows what he's doing...I was extremely satisfied with his all around work..Dave
