Richard,
Yes the legs are threaded and while it says there are screws there they are=
really bolts, =BC=94 with a nut tight to the frame when adjusted so that t=
he bolts do not move in or out.
I would not count on a Moss catalogue when doing a restoration, a Parts Man=
ual is really a must as well as the Concours Guide, whether or not you want=
to do your car to Concours. In this instance the bolts are shown in the pa=
rts catalogue, in the drawing of the top but there are no parts number for =
them, and there are a fair number of items like that in any of the parts ca=
talogue for the Austin-Healey, Another one on the BN6/BN7 is the round blac=
k cover that is snapped in place underneath the forward part of the trunk h=
inges, the part is not shown anywhere in any of the parts manual.

The ends of the legs are threaded. The Robbins section of my Moss catalogue=
says "the legs had adjusting screws to adjust the tension". Would these h=
ave been cap screws or pan head screws or something unusual? Again, the Mo=
ss catalogue does not show these screws.
