Topic: 35 Convertible Sedan Rear Wooden Bow


Peter in NH    -- 03-22-2021 @ 4:34 AM
  I recently bought a new rear bow for my 35 convertible sedan and I'm trying to decide where I need to drill the hole for the special
center fasteners that help to secure it to the metal frame. I had my original bow but made the mistake of sending it to the fellow that
reproduces them but it was lost in transit and I never got it back. Can someone that still has an original rear bow in their car please
give me an accurate measurement from the ends of the bow to the centers of the middle fasteners? As the other two fasteners on each
side are simply wood screws it'll be easy to establish their location after installing the bow. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

My original bow 35 measures 4 - 3/16 from end of bow to middle of the threaded fastener.
