1959 Hard Top

There are 3 rivets and 3 screws above the side window that help hold the rain gutter on. Can you describe them or photograph them for me? Thanks for responding, Jimmy Johnson

Re: '59 Hard Top

Tried to photograph several times but keep getting very blurry pics due not-so-hot focus on camera. I trust you have the chrome parts so know where the holes are. The three phillips screws are in the front, rivets towards the rear.
The screws (may be barrel screws not sure as did not remove) are chromed . The rivets are stainless. Will forward the off focus pics to you directly

I suspect you will be able to get exact replacements from

or Corvette America at who include these in item 35578
or Ecklers/others by calling them with your requirement.
