HELP! I need help with my Riviera Top.....

I own a 85 Vanagon with a Riviera top

I finally went after my leaking top on my vanagon! It was a big project which entailed taking the top off, re-fiberglassing some cracks, replacing the wood frame and putting on new canvasse.

I ran into a problem on the re-assembly and need your help!

The back brackets don’t fit any more! Could you take a picture of your pop top back brackets for me? It would also be really helpful to know what the dimension of the brackets are. Where are they placed. What is the length of your back. Any help would be appreciated.

Sincerely,

Mick Pearson

Okay - I'll grant that it's a Riviera top. As to what is wrong, it's hard to tell in the pictures. Did you send Julia Weber who is in this group a message? She has a mid-80s riv. Go to the "Member Map" link at the top and hover over it and click on "fellow bussers" in the dropdown. You should send her a message and see if she has pics to share...
