Default 28/29 OCPU Top Bows / Irons

I have an incomplete set of top irons for my OCPU. The top center bow is missing.
Also, I have two wood bows with the set that are different lengths. I am looking for
measurements for the rear top wood portion of the rear bow so I can determine which
wood bow is correct.

Also, any way I can distinguish Roadster irons from Roadster Pickup irons and which pieces are common to both vehicles, if any.

Help would be greatly appreciated.

Roadster and OCPU top irons are totally different. Original OCPU top irons do NOT fold down.

Any dimension you can add? Total length of the wood rear bow?

I had a decent set of OCPU top irons, but sold them about 3 years ago. The OCPU top irons have a lot of steel and not much wood. The middle bow is made of metal. The only bow that is wood is the rear most bow. I tried attaching some pictures of the irons I use to have, but Fordbarn photo uploader kept failing. I didn't measure the wood bow before I sold the irons. If you send me your email address I can send you the pictures I have if you want them.
