Default Copper top doesn't fit!

Hi,

When I bought my car last fall, I had 3 tops.

-Smoked
-White
-Copper

I just tried for the first time the copper top and it doesn't fit there. I don't understand.

White top


Copper top


And here's the sticker that was on the Copper top that I removed (was barely sticking):


Why?

Looks to be missing the hardware, or could be an early top.

Make sure the car is sitting flat and square. I was parked on a slope one day and couldn't get my top on.

Seems to be an early top, oh well. Gotta try to sell this top now.

Thanks!

Your Bronze top fits 84,85, early 86 Vettes. late 86, 87,88 are 2nd design, 89 up is 3rd design.

even if you have the correct top for the year of car, sometimes they don't fit perfect and need adjustment.
