[Tigers] Hardtops

["Bill Rogers Motorsport Memories" <milward@roadrunner.com>]

Our car (Mk1 2703) was delivered with the soft top only. The well known photo
of the cars in the Long Beach warehouse awaiting delivery
http://www.catmbr.org/temp/TU33star1.pdf shows at least the front 8 cars with
the soft tops up, so I suspect that is how most were delivered and only
specially ordered cars came with car colored hard tops. Dealers would sell
black H/Ts or paint them for you for additional profit.

The H/T on our Tiger came from an Alpine - don't remember which, since we put
it on and it fitted so I bought it. Does that mean I have and Alger H/T?

Hardtops have serial numbers ( ours is #1367) and H/T changes and
interchangeability would be a great research project for someone.
