Hi Bruce,
My BT7 is #9520, and the top bow I have here is not correct for this car. I
don't know if it's missing a bow (it has only two) or might be the correct
one for your car. If the latter is the case, maybe we could trade. Or, if
what I have is totally incorrect and missing a bow I might be interested in
yours.
Do you have any photos?
