[Healeys] Top Bows

[Roland Wilhelmy]

good choice, I think.  Have you test installed the frame in your car yet?
Most frames I have come in contact with are bent in ways that don't
cooperate with folding and unfolding or with alignment with the windshield
posts.  They require a bit of 'reasoning'.  Sometimes a hammer and anvil,
sometimes some homemade tools that look like crescent wrenches  with jaws
wrapped in tape.  May you be luckier.
