Bruce, I hate to be the bearer of bad tidings, but you have pretty serious wear in some if not all of your frame's fasteners openings. The giveaway is the sagging of the two cast pieces which hold the molded rubber pieces and are above the side glass. Not the current one, but the top I installed on the previous '69 Spider had to have virtually all of the fasteners removed, drilled out round, bushed, then fasteners reinstalled. A very time consuming job but the top was much sturdier afterwards. I have photos.
