Smile 67 Duetto Convertible Top Frame

Hi Guys, Can someone look at their conv. top frame and advise me on what I think might be missing. The front bow that sits over the driver and passenger windows seems like it should connect to the frame instead of being free floating. It attaches to the top before the windshield connection.I replaced the weather stripping over the side windows and found a screw on each side that comes up through the frame and is close to the open ends of the bow. Also I need a source for the fixed or inserted nuts in the bulkhead where you bolt through the rear drape to secure the rear end of the top. Thanks, Bob

I used rubber feet (a combination) from a Radio Shack. Another post shows nice shots by Osso or Papajam of what the original bumpers looked like with dimensions. I used stainless steel bolts, nuts, and washers to attach them to the frame. I still need some kind of plug for the tube.
