Thanks. Shrinkage makes sense, though from my inspection I had a hard time
imagining the top ever being tight against the windows.

You're right about me being relatively young <g> but I've always driven old cars
-- my fancy new old Range Rover, bought last year, excepted. Turns out great
heaters, A/C and sound systems aren't to my liking, so it's for sale. Actually
I'm struck by how well the heater in the TR4 works -- compared to the jeeps I've
had.

Can't get there from here. <g> My job requires intraday driving, so I'm stuck.
Until I can get a Triumph for the office, and a Triumph for home. Hmmm... it's
clearly the environmentally right thing to do.
