Excerpt from Popular Science Monthly, Vol. 94: January, 1919
It consists of a vertical rack provided inside of the body at the extreme rear of the car. This rack is moved up vertically out of its compartment by means of two shafts and bevel' gearing from power taken off the car engine through a meshing pinion set. The stop forces the lazy-tongs to extend forward until they reach the wind-shield side-bars, where they are attached, the tongs themselves forming the framework for the top material, which is folded up as the tongs are drawn close together before lowering the entire device into its compartment.
