C2 Convertible top front bow source ?

[Tracy C.]

My top frame is off my 63 and I was probing around on it yesterday sizing up the task to replace the canvas and I notice a rust hole under the front weather strip towards the center of the bow. My gut tells me there might be more but until I peel it all off I won't know for sure.

I see Corvette Central has a replacment front bow for around $360. Has anybody here seen this piece and have a feel to how it fits and compares to the original?

Any other sources or advice on this if I need to replace?

thanks,
tc
