My front header bow has some damage on the corners.... I'm just wondering if anyone has a decent one or perhaps a damaged one I can trim the pieces off of. ??.. I guess I should start shopping around..lol.. Thanks for any help or advice....

I believe the front header bow is available from the repro houses.

What year? I replaced the header panel on my 69 with a repro due to too much bondo in near the middle. The corners are fine. I would consider selling the original. It's from a hardtop. Does that matter? I would be willing to post photos and let others tell us what it's worth.

Hey midlife.. Thanks for the offer but only the convertible stuff will work, thanks though.. I guess I will try to fit a radius piece in there as close as I can and then decide weather to do the repop thing.. it's just that none of the repo stuff I have purchased so far has been any good.. Has anyone out there purchased a repo conv. header bow??.. Did it match up?.. I have seen them on ebay, I'm just a bit gun shy.. I'm thinkin' four hours labor at the body shop is only a 100 bucks.. perhaps we can patch this one... The body shop guy is really good.. I just wish I had two decent corners to weld in there.. Thanks for any help and advice!!...
