Not sure what year your have, but my 1970 owners manual shows a small black & white picture of the driver's side T-top strapped in the rear compartment.

You should have 3 d-ring type hooks; 2 on the sides and 1 in the front middle of the compartment between the seats.

In my 1970, the T-tops, with covers, would fit behind the seats with the curved edge over the wheel hump. There are two straps from the top of the wheel hump to the center of the luggage space that will hold them in that position. The center console can be accessed.

In my 1973, the T-tops do not fit as in the 1970. They are stacked crosswise, with covers, in the center of the luggage space. There is a single strap that connects on each side and the center forward of the luggage space. The center console cannot be accessed. I prefer the 1970 arrangement.
