[TR] Soft Top Bow measurements on TR2-3b

[Andrew Uprichard]

I kept original webbing from a car I restored many years ago and use the marks on the webbing as a guide for the new webbing.  In general, the bows open fully and the webbing is taught.  BUT, I have had different experiences with different tops, where the seams often do not line up with the bows themselves.

Subject: [TR] Soft Top Bow measurements on TR2-3b

In researching my files on installing the soft top on side screen TR’s I am running across conflicting measurements.  Two distances are given for the CL of the rear caping to the CL of the first rear bow: 15-3/4” and 17-1/2, center stick to rear: 7” and *” and the front closest to the windshield 11” with distance on to top of windscreen 14-1/4”.\\,
Does anyone have a more definitive set of measurements, CL to CL?  Or do you just fudge what you can to match the seams of your top?
Appreciate any info you may have…..
