I've been looking for a surrey top for my TR4A off and on over the 
years, but have never found one (that didn't come with a car 
attached!).  But now I have lead on one, and realize that I have a few 
questions before I take the plunge.

First, what changes, if any, do I need to make on a car that didn't 
come with one from the factory?  I know that I will need to change the 
cap rail on the windscreen.  Anything else?

Second, my main interest is in using only the cloth center section 
(when needed).  I can't find a good picture of the frame, does it fold 
up?  If not, does it fit in the boot?

Third, did cars that came with a surrey top have the snaps for a 
tonneau installed?  Not much I can do about it now, but just curious.

Lastly, does anyone know what a reasonable price might be for a used 
but restorable rear surround and hard center section (rear window is 
supposed to be in good condition)?

Thanks,
Darrell
