That's why I'm always coming in too hot........... The TR4 arrangement is quite different. The top is separate from the frame, and the frame doesn't extend to the windscreen. Dean Yes, yes. The Flap

You did mention this before, and I found the same photos in my reference books. The manufacturer acknowledges that the TR4A had the straps, but also claims they work for the TR4, just twisted 90 deg

I just bought a convertible top for my TR4 from a U.S. vendor who sources from the UK. The top was special order, and cost more than a Robbins replacement, but I wanted a zippered rear window, and th

Thanks for the suggestions. I had the pedal assembly out of the car when I redid the hydraulics, and greased all of the pedal bushings in the process. The pedals swing freely, and return to full sto
