Convertible Top Frame Identification

Postby nateshoe » Tue Apr 04, 2017 10:19 pm

Hello,
I have a '78 Spider, that has been pieced together from multiple cars, I have a top frame for the car in decent enough shape, but I am trying to identify it as a CS1 or CS2 frame. I have seen the sketches on some top manufacturers' websites, and have searched the forum, but I wanted to confirm what I have.

Looking at the top-side of the front left bow:

I really need to work on my photography skills... can take more tomorrow.

That header bow looks like the early style, CS1, as it has those "ears" at the corners.
