Top Deck-1934
The 1934 top deck is of fabric supported on top bows and
an under layer of sheeting and padding.
The deck material as well as the sheeting is tacked into a
fiber tacking strip which is encased in a steel channel. The
edge of the deck is covered with a metal moulding which
carries a fabric filler.
Removal of Top Deck
1. Remove fabric strip from center of top moulding.
2. Remove tacks from moulding and remove moulding.
3. Remove tacks from top deck and remove top deck.
4. Remove tacks from sheeting and remove sheeting and
pad.
Installation of Top Deck
1. Fill space between tacking strip and body panel with
drip-moulding cement (Dolphanite 1390).
2. Tack sheeting at front and rear center and proceed
tacking in both directions from front, stretching sheeting
tight. Trim as necessary.
3. Lay a piece of blue wadding-12 inches wide —over
each bow and extending to within 2 inches of edge of sheeting.
4. Put a coating of Dolphanite No. 1390 cement about 1"
wide around edge of sheeting.
5. Put top deck in place and tack at front and rear center.
Then continue from front center in both directions, stretching
deck tight and tacking.
6. Trim deck close to tacks and put a coating of
Dolphanite No. 1390 around edge and the width of
moulding.
7. Tack moulding in place.
8. Put a liberal coating of Dolphanite No. 1390 in
moulding channel to seal tack holes and insert finish
binding.
9. Flow Dolphanite along both inner and outer edges
of moulding and allow to dry.
Top Deck-1935
This top deck is a metal panel spotwelded to the body
panels and sealed with compound which is covered by a
rubber finish strip.
Should a leak develop, the rubber strip should be
removed and the channel cleaned. Put a uniform layer of
Dolphanite sealer over the entire bottom of the channel
about 1/16" thick and allow to dry.
Place one end of the rubber moulding in the channel
at the center of the rear section. Press the rubber in the
channel progressively stretching it so that the ends meet.
This can be most easily done by using a roller.
Top Panel Support
The metal roof panels are self-supporting, however,
auxiliary support is provided to prevent drumming.
The top bows are bolted to brackets attached to the
metal body headers. These carry broad pieces of ma-
sonite on top of which is placed blue wadding. A layer
of sound deadening felt is cemented to the under side of
the top panel and should just touch the blue wadding on
top of the masonite strips.
