The 2 seater and the 4 seater have different header bows.  Yes I know =
that Moss only lists one but they are wrong, there are three different =
header bows for the 6 cylinder Healeys.  2 seater,  4 seater  and BJ7 =
=E2=80=938

So if you are putting a 2 seater top on that car that you are modifying =
you will need a 2 seater header bow.

Subject: [Healeys] Wood top bow



Has anyone made their own wood top bow?  As I'm getting ready to order a =
new wood top bow for my BN7, and seeing the price, I wondered if I could =
make my own. I have my own little wood shop, band saw, table saw, =
router, etc.=20

I have not yet disassembled the old top.  I was leaving that up to the =
upholstery shop so they could see how it all goes together. But then I =
thought, how hard could it be to make one myself?   A 4 foot 1-1/2" x =
1-1/2" stick of white oak will cost me about $20.00.
