Hi everyone,

I gotta FB ute i'm restoring and i'm chasing the roof bows.

Does anyone have them or even one that i can get my hands on or could someone help point me in the direction of where i could go to maybe get my hands on them?

Im in darwin and there is almost nothing for old cars here. However i'm headin to melb in a few weeks so plan on visiting a few wreckers.

Can anyone help?

Thanks in advance
Manda

The bows are different shape & size because of the roof profile but if you get your hands on some from a sedan they should fit providing you get the front 3 bows, they are spot painted for easy ID & the bow colours you need are - from front to rear
1. Green
2. Blue
3. Plain

hey manda if your leed doesnt come good you could consider making them from scratch (not that difficult) i had to make mine for the ute as the roof shape was hand formed which in turn changed the shape of the head lining :)
