I had to fit all new seals to my hardtop, as it came without any at all.
I haven't had a single leak all winter. I suspect BL intended you to
use the hard-top when it rained. I have a copy of an advert from about
1977 as follows:
THE TRIUMPH SPITFIRE
<pic of lime green Spit with the top down>
April - October
FOR PEOPLE WHO ARE ONLY HALF CONVINCED
ABOUT THE JOYS OF OPEN MOTORING
<pic of same Spit with the hard-top on, and the rain lashing down>
October - April
(BTW, if anyone owns Spitfire registration number OOE 845S, that's the
one that was used in the ad.)

You can't be serious! (Or you can't be in the UK at the moment...)
