This might be the synthetic canvas-like material that Jeep uses on their
newer tops.  I haven't looked into it yet, but I may try having that put
on the TR4's top... the vinyl has given up the ghost and I'd like
something that will last many winters.

I'd also like to know about anyone who has successfuly stitched their own
top... I won't need a top until the bodywork is done, but as I don't have
an original TR4 hoodstick ass'y, I kinda think I will have to do myself a
custom job.

Unless someone has an original TR4 hoodstick (and rear moulding) they want
to part with cheap..!
