Re: My 50 roadster pickup build

Also not shown is the mounting system for the removable top. I welded a piece of pipe in the header with a washer part way inside, to act as a stop for a bolt.

Pic 1 A couple of pics I took today showing them in the header with the top in place.

Pic 2 Shows the socket head cap screw that goes up inside to secure the top. The cap screw stops at the washer, the threads are thru the header, and line up with the top, and pulls the top down until tight. The top has a nut welded in it's top frame. Note: I also built the top, but that doesn't come up for about another 5 or 6 post, sorry.
