Strictly a guess, Brad, but I suspect that this was a hardtop sourced in
the United States by Standard-Triumph USA (considering that these
newsletters came from the US branch of TSOA). It is an interesting
hardtop, though, unlike most aftermarket hardtops I've seen over the years
for the TR4 -- almost "predicts" the style of the later factory TR6
hardtop!
