Looking for Top Bow 180A

[David180]

Greetings all. I'm trying to find the main top bow for my Deluxe Phaeton. LeBaron Bonney says they don't have them. Any other sources? Thanks for the help!

do you mean the header bow? (the heavy piece right over the windshield)

 

[David180]

No - the rear most bow

Maybe Brent Terry will write in, he's done several.
Oak Bows used to make them, chambersburg, pa
The real problem is quality on the ones I've seen.
There used to be a woodworker in the Midwest that made good ones
But I've lost contact with him. He used to rewood 180.
Mendola may know how to get to him if still around

How about Fordwood or Classic wood?

Snyders lists the set of all bows for Deluxe phaeton

Thanks Will and Oldbluoval! I'll give them a look.

I doubt if he will see this, his last activity on FB was three years ago.

Don, are you steam bending out of solid oak stock, -or are you laminating them out of strips??
