[Tigers] Re-stringing the canvas web on the top frame

[James Armstrong]

the material I have is just the same as original without the "rubber", so no issue. Thanks for the warning! Jim Armstrong In a message dated 6/15/2021 6:26:52 PM Eastern Standard Time, garywinblad at comcast.net writes: 
The original material was rubberized,grey in my mk1.  I found the exact material except in tan.  Do not do what I did.  Itbecame just like the hardened crackedoriginal junk within a couple seasons.The better modern replacement is seat belt material.Gary

 Hello all,

 Some 6 or more years ago, I went on a mission to find exact replacement cotton webbing to re-string (?)my convertible top frame. A note here; earlier Alpines and I suspect Tiger Mk 1s had three rows of this material going from the front windshield header to the center bow to the rear bow. My Mk 1A. has only a center strip of this material. I saved the steel pieces which the cotton is wrapped around, buy didn't take any pictures of the "Dress" of the cotton webbing.     Does anyone know where there are pictures of the "dress"?  Its kind of over, under, around and through. Comments please? Best regards to all, Jim ArmstrongMk 1A382002083 LRXFECode 86TAC # 0763_______________________________________________
