31 Std. Roadster Front Bow

[fundytides]

Does anyone have a diagram or measurements for the front top bow in a 31 Std. Roaster that they would share. I am restoring my top frame and the bows all are in good condition but the front bow looks like a newer replacement, maybe home made, and I'm not sure it is the right dimensions. Other 2 bows look original with original fabric wrap and are solid.

Fundy: The front bow on our 30 standard measures approximately 1 1/2" by 1", with the 1 1/2" dimension being vertical. It's covered with top material, so can't be precise. The length will be determined by the distance between your windshield posts. Attach front bow to the top frame with top frame attached to the windshield posts.
Deluxe top bows are very different, as you know.

Thanks Mike. That's exactly what I need. I am in FL right now but when I return home in April, these measurements will allow me to determine if my bow is correct. Just wanted to be sure before I install a new top. Dave
