[TR] TR4 hoodsticks

[Dave]

Rather than relying on measurements it might be better to fit the hood and align the sticks to the seams or where they should be supporting the hood and mark the straps to suit.

Of course I'm one to talk.  When I replaced my straps I removed and replaced one at a time and used the remaining one to set the spacing.  ;-)

I putting the hood sticks on a 63 tr4 after a many year hiatus/restoration.
 
I don’t have the measurements on the length of the straps.  I’m hoping there are instructions on locally obtainable webbing, measurements, and other helpful information somewhere.
 
can anyone guide me?  this car slept for 25+ years, then I got it, discovered it needed an engine rebuild, and several years and an engine rebuild later I’ve got it back on the street.  but it would be really nice to have a top!
 
thanks in advance
