    I need a measurement on a roadster where the top hooks to the body, from the back of the door opening to that Tab that the top hooks to. also size of the hole in the tab. I'm building a Model A Tub and want to try an put a roadster top on it, but I don't have that "tab " so I made them but don't know where to put them. Hope this makes sense. Thanks for any help. Here's a picture to help. also the top bows are from Speedway.

    Really should wait until you get the top,unless it's a original top the mounting tabs are not all the same. HRP

    Hrp is on the money. Either buy a top or bows and then fix tabs. Otherwise you’ll be doing it 2x or making a custom top. Unless you have something in mind or a top you will be using.
