[Healeys] Convertible Top.

[Per Schoerner]

Gents
I think we have to get the definitions right. A convertible is a vehicle that has a removable top, but the top is fixed to the car. Like the case is with BJ7 and BJ8. The BT7 is a roadster, meaning that the top is removable, and is not fixed to the vehicle. I suggest a simple Googling on this and you will get the terms right.

Best regards, Per

If you have a pair of holes on each side behind the doors, then it should be no problem. One set of holes is for the tonneau bar and the other is for the top frame, which is removable when the top is down and is stored behind the back of the rear seats. See the attached photos.
