[Tigers] top window

[awtiger at cox.net]

Hey, Clyde:


Just to help your memory along on your Mom's MGBs...you didn't mention what years of cars she had, but the B didn't come standard with a zippered rear window until 1976.  According to Moss Motors however, you can get a zippered rear window top for any year of MGB.  They are constructed the same as you described for the Z3s; they have a flap that covers the zipper to keep water from seeping through.  My '73 MGB has a zippered rear window in its top and I absolutely love it!!  It's too bad that the Tigers didn't have that feature on their convertible tops.
