Around the top of the body there is a wood rail. What type of fasteners are used to hold these three rails to the body? These are the wood pieces that are wrapped with cloth before putting the top on. Thank you, Ed

they are 1/4 20 stove bolts. or called slotted round head screws. the rail is counter bored and the screw end up below the top of the rail. I`m not sure on how the lower landau bracket fastens it goes below the rail the A&B`s go above the rail.
