We were forced into the restoration when a bunch of mice overran her while she was spending the winter in a trailer. The top was one of the most severely damaged parts of the car. So much damage that I had to discard the material associated with the top (the odor was outrageous). Unfortunately I didn’t take a picture of the top remains and I am now unsure of the placement of the grey straps that set the spacing for the frame pieces of the top. <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>I have found a reference that describes the distances between each of the frame pieces, but I am not sure of which frame pieces have strapping between them. I know straps go from the front piece (at top of windshield) to the second frame piece. And, I know the straping continues to the third frame piece (where a clamping piece secures the strap to that piece. However, I can’t remember whether, or not, the strap continues to the back piece secured to the top over the rear plastic window.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Can anyone tell me how to route the straps?
