Topic: 1940 Ford convertible top


Olyn    -- 11-07-2012 @ 1:19 PM
  I am in need of what is called a "self-releasing fastener" for my 40 ford convertible top. This fastener attaches to the sides of the car and holds the last button for the top to the car. LeBarron Bonney part #10326 which they no longer carry and were unable to refer me to anyone who may have these. Appreciate any input as I have tried numerous searches on-line and have come up with nothing.

  Mine came from the trim shop that installed the top. I'm surprised L-B doesn't have them. Try your local auto trim shops. If you can't find them, call McFall Auto Trim at 319/354-7017. They do all of our work.

  Thank you! LB did carry them but when I asked about them, they said "no longer" and were not able or willing to refer me to anybody else.

  A shop located in PA has them, I talked with Jeff at 814-467-9842. He was very helpful and will ship them out to me today!
