Well, I found a parts update that I'd forgotten I had - and I just bought
it at the Invasion!
It seems the top frame changed significantly for the Series III. Both Series
I and II had the same frame, but with the Series III, they changed the
header as well as the latch mechanism that locks the frame upright. This
puts a bit of a crimp in things.
I thought I might be able to use the Ser III header, and just change the
locating plates that guide the header into the windshield frame. No such
luck - all the hardware specs are different according to the parts book.
They went from #6 machine screws to #10 machine screws, so a fair amount
of butchery would be required to try it that way.
It looks like I'll have to try to find a Ser I or II top frame, or at least
the header rail and passenger's side rail from one.
Keep an eye out, folks, thanks!
