Roof top tack strip

[oldford]

How well does the roof top tack strip fit on a 32. I would think the corners would be the problem area. Is there an alternative that someone has used.

Use #2 or #3 wood screws with Robertson heads in the four corners.

That's good for the screws but I need infor on the tack strip.

Do you have the strip or are you trying to make the tack strip? We need more info.

The UPAC metal kit fits well. My son used it to make workon his for door was fine. Used the kit on my coupe worked fine

I'm talking about the pre bent ones. The UP ones are straight. And it would be impossible for me to bend one to fit the curve corners without it deforming. It's for a 32 coupe.

They sold bent parts for front and rear. Straight pieces for the side. You need four pieces from them front rear one long piece to make the sides
