Need a little help please, 71 Jimmy - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

The guy I work for has a nice Jimmy we have been restoring for awhile. We are down to the nit-picky little things that will make it complete.
We have a problem with the tailgate/roof hatch that LMC can't help us with.
(I will include photos.) We need some pictures or place to find the correct parts for latching down the roof hatch, also the braces on rear of top to inner bed sides would be great too. Hours of searching the internet and we just can't find the images or a place that sells these parts.
I know one of you guys has the stuff on yours or knows where I can get the parts.
Thanks a million in advance

I know something is missing here

The side bracket holes I mentioned..

not 100% sure this is the original gate, maybe why no holes are present for the catch (hatch latch thing)?

Here are some more pictures of the

for anyone wondering..
(the interior was done by Sue @ ASM Dallas TX, yeah the GasMonkey lady lol)
