I was wondering if anyone has pictures of moke hood bows that haven't been butchered.
Pref up on a moke without the top off.

Also how are the two webbed straps fixed (mine seems to pull the last bow faward). Trying to get the top on 4 the winter.

They are screwed to the bodywork at the back and slip over the longer doovers on the windscreen . The strap holds the tension on the bows and then support the hood so they should be tight .

I modded my webbing straps with some old lap belt tightener doovers from the centre rear seat of Fords at the wreckers. Heaps easier than trying to get just the right tension when you put that screw in at the back of the car.

Yes, that's a good tip!
