<DIV>Hey Stu,</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Early Tigers had 3 front to back fabric strips which were held on with
pieces of Aluminum pop-riveted to the frame capturing the strips. Later
Mk1As and IIs had a single strip down the center front to back</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>You should be able to tell how many strips you had by looking at the
remains. I was able to find perfect identical fabric strips (cheap) from a shop
in PA.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I sent some strips and purchase data to Rick at SS. I'll try and dig it out
over T-Day holiday.</DIV>
