[Zmagnette] ZA hood

[Arch Boston]

Jeff with me function trumps form.  That being said would be good for someone "down the road" to be able to return things to original.  Fletcher I looked at the parts book.  Sometimes the drawings are better than photos.  However, I think photos would be better this time.  Has anyone had this conversion made/done. Arch

If it would be helpful how difficult would it be to add that spring to my ZB? Has anyone else had that problem -- if you have how did you solve problem?  Could someone send photos of spring  and how it has been mounted? All sorts of questions..  Thanks, Arch
