Some of that might have to do with the fact that the TR7 wasn't designed to 
be a convertible. Surprising considering the country of origin, but not 
surprising at a time when it was believed proposed US rollover standards 
would effectively ban convertibles. At that time, and considering how things 
were going in general for Triumph and the rest of Leyland, it's amazing that 
they did as well as they did with the TR7/8 convertible. 




And for those of us who think the roofs of the TR7 coupes are "butt ugly", the 
convertible ones were a blessing!!!
