Re: What Brand top???

Those bracket aren't STC or Kayline. Plus, both of those brands don't put the snaps into the bed side, but into brackets that bold to the top of the bedrail. . Can you give us a shot of the shape of the top (side shot of the truck)?

You could always have a top made at a shop that deals with boat biminis.

Re: What Brand top???

I'm guessing that it may have been a custom top made by the previous owner. The support rods look like something you'd see on a boat top.
