Brief Description: Canopy cutting-3 and trim the front skin for clear
1. I marked a couple of trim lines on the front upper skin where it wraps around the front roll bar. There is too much aft length and inhibits proper closing of the frame. I put two lines. Most fwd line is lined up with the seem in the side skins and if cut all the way down would eliminate one rivit hole. The 2nd line is more aft and still would eliminate the rivit. It however does not provide enough clearance at the top. So I cut down about 1 inch on fwd line and curved to other line and then curved again before going all the way down. This will allow me to operate the frame as needed until I decide on final cut and look.
2. I marked front and back of canopy for two more cut and polish sessions. Im getting much closer to the roll bar now. The aft end confuses me a bit still. It has huge space on each side of rail that will need to be pulled in and it just sems excessive. I guess we will find out soon enough
Note: I had cut about 24 1 inch lengths of vinyl tube with 1/8 inch thickness to use for spacers in the event I decide to Sika this thing to the frame. Im still undecided at this point but I did temp install them and placed the canopy on to se how the fit is comming
Marked two potential cut lines on the fwd upper skin-both sides. This is fro frame clearance when clos
