Hello,

I don't like the way my folding frame top attaches to my '66 MGB.  I can't
find any pictures of how it is supposed to look, so I thought I would ask
here.  This is how mine attaches now:

      | |  <--- folding frame
      | | 
  --- | |
  | | | | o <------ cotter (sp?) pin
 [| |=| |=|=  <---- bolt-like thing with hole in this end
  | | --- 
 
   ^ bracket on car    

The problem (besides my bad ascii drawing) is that I have to put washers in
as spacers to take up the slack in this configuration and then the cotter
pin on the end has a habit of catching my shirtsleeves <g>.  Anyone have a
better setup?

Thanks,
Ross
'66 B
