61 soft top frame
My soft top frame does not line up with a few of the holes in the body while the top works and seals ok I wonder if the frame is an earlier type. How would I know if it is a correct 61 frame?

In the center of the rear bow there will be a slight rise to clear the styling ridge on the body.
If that rise is there, you have either a '61 or '62 top. If not, it's no newer than '60.
That said, the rear latch loops for '60 and older tops do not line up with the latches on a '61 - '62 rear deck.
