 Sounds like you may have TeriAnn's diagram and also the Amco top
instructions that came with my top (dated 5/23/78).  I would use either as
a starting point then adjust to fit the top you have.

The installation of the top isn't what varies but rather the webbing and
the placement of the bows/sticks.  When I did mine I used some rope as
temporary 'webbing' until I was satisfied with the location of the bows
(lining them up with the seams) and then installed the webbing.
