Tom,

The TR4A uses the same design as the TR250 and the TR6.  They got a little 
fancier... but it is about the same basic plan.  The top along with the frame 
is folded into the space in front of the rear deck.  The TR4 has an erector 
set frame and a top that stores in the trunk.  When the TR4 top is down you 
see a complete "roadster" look... no buldge and an open occasional seat area.

The TR4A design is convienent and fast to erect but the price is the space 
used up in the back seat area.
