Finishing up a restoration on my 61 BT7. I'm trying to install the soft top but have a few questions installation. My car didn't have a top when I got it so I have no reference to go by and I haven't been able to find any pictures or instructions on the internet. I bought my new top from John Skinner Upholstery Co..
1. What are the attachment points for the webbing that goes between the hood bows? I know it attaches to the rear bow by the way of 2 small plates held in place with a couple of screws but what about the other end? Does it attach to the wood header above the windshield?
2. On the inside of the top there is a strip of material about 3" wide that is sewn into the seam above the rear window.
It runs parallel to the rear bow. Does this piece of material attached to the rear bow? Is there any part of the top attached to the bows.
I hoping someone could post pictures of the inside of the top when it is installed on the car so I can see the webbing and if the top is attached to the bows.
Thanks,
Pete
