Wooden top bows available

Post by CTLeonard » Wed Apr 10, 2024 2:51 pm

I've recently started to steam bend oak bows for model A roadsters. Thought I could offer up bows for the model T. It would require a pattern or at least a good drawing for me to go from. Any inquiries please email me at ctleonard64@gmail.com

Thank you for offering this service! You might want to contact Lang's and/or some of the other retailers to see if they would be interested in acquiring a run of bows.

Here are some illustrations from elsewhere on the forum regarding socket and bow dimensions for 1923-1925 Roadsters.

Larry Smith, Dan Treace, and others may want to comment on their accuracy and provide corrections as needed. I will post info on other years and body styles from the forum as I find them. :)
