[Tigers] Convertible top

[Will Seay]

Clyde,
There's only one strap.  In your 1A, the one strap plus Velcro is supposed
to do the job.  Some of the flapping may be because your strap isn't tight
enough.  The front segment of the strap is supposed to be elastic, and as
such will always pull tight between the windshield header and the bow.
Most after-market straps are non-elastic, typically made of nylon, similar
to seat belt material, and depend on initial fit to provide the correct
tension.  If the strap doesn't provide the right tension, you may have some
flapping.
