My friend just bought a 76 TR6.  On this car, the top attaches differently =
than my 74.  On my 74 the rear of the top where it connects to the body (ju=
st below the back window) was permanently connected to the body.  With this=
 76, the top snaps to the body.  Is this the way it was done in 76?  Or has=
 a previous owner changed the connection?

He is considering changing the black vinyl top on this 76 to tan.  I see Mo=
ss sells a StayFast tan.  Does anyone have experience with this?  Good? Bad=
?  Are there other types/brands/vendors he might consider for comparison?
