The top bar in the top bow assembly is bolted to the frame. The canvas has a pocket in it that this bar goes through before the bar is bolted in place. This makes it so you can roll up one or both sides of the canvas and keep the rest in place. It's sort of a self stowing setup
In the frontal pic you can see how the front panel wraps around the sides and snaps in place. There's a row of brass fasteners along the inside front of the box to hold the bottom of the front panel. The sides of the top assembly have more of these fasteners to hold the bottom of the sides in place. The back has a few of these fasteners too as well as a couple of straps that tie onto rings in the back of the box.
I'll post a few pix of my body tomorrow.
