Brief Description: Bent Canopy Bow

I applied more fire sealant to the firewall recess. I got 6'' C-clamps from Dave Manning and Jeff. I used the clamps and boards on the right canopy bow. I cut another 1/4" to insert between the side canopy bows for support. I used three C-clamps on the right with a combination of 2x4's to bend the side bow.
