Check the classifieds. There's a guy in Southern California selling reproduction bows & rails. He had them available at the Bug-In a few weeks ago

No one to my knowledge is reproducing the front header. Here's a very nice solution. Use a 1956-63 header and have extra metal welded on the front corners, effectively transforming it into Square ends. Once you've got the canvas on it, you can't tell.
The grooved handle is being repro'd. The rear tack strip you can construct yourself using a plain piece of Steel.
