Title: Soft top chrome strip
Post by: Brennie on May 08, 2023, 08:52:25

Hi
I’m just wondering.. did all models have a chrome strip above the rear window on the soft top? I know it’s nailed on.. which means it needs a wooden cross member in the frame ..
I have a very early SL230 .. would I originally of had one.. how would I know( without piercing the hood) if I have a wooden piece there?
I’m trying to find an old used one I can fiddle with..

Thank you Garry
I don’t know why I don’t look there first… I guess mine had one.. just misplaced over time.. now to find a good second hand one..
if anyone can help I’d be more than grateful..
