I need help getting the correct bolts to mount my double wall top to the side panels. I bought a 1970 and all the bolts are missing
Any help is appreciated
Thanks

The side panels and top mount separate? do you need the screws for the side panles or the bolts for the dog ears on the back of the top?

Not the bolts on the header panel or the bolts for the rear hold down. Just the bolts that run along the side panels
Thanks

I believe they are 5/16 X 18. I am not sure about the length either maybe 1 1/4 or 1 1/2" long. When I took mine off I ran a tap in all my mounting holes and then bolted the top to a 2X4 frame so it wouldn't spread. I put never seize on the bolts so I will be able to get them out some day. If you look at the bottom of your top you will see the bolt holes and should be able to tell the correct size and be able to determine the length you need.

I used carb stubs so that I could line up the holes better....
