Tadeusz,

Here are some detail pictures of the later tonneau cover arrangement that
began about 1st July 1954. Note that the front corners come forward further
than the early ones, and are anchored using turn buttons. Note also the
nickel finish on the eyelet that clears the stud for the windscreen steady
spring. Also note the tab sewn into the tonneau cover just behind the door
that anchors to a turn button.
My guess as to the reason for this little tab feature is so the tonneau
cover can turn and fold a little better when stowed behind the seats.
I'm asking John Sims if he might post this information and pics.on his site.
