I have a Robbins on my 58 3 and it fits the same today as it did when I got it 
for Christmas back in 88 from TRF.

I have an original hoodstick cover for the 3 and it still fits just fine. It is 
showing its age but still looks ok. 

I was able to get a AMCO top for my TR4 on EBAY. It was NOS still in the box 
and the seller said he purchased a bunch of tops when AMCO went out of 
business back in the early 90's. Well it cost me about 100 $ + shipping and 
the fit was perfect in every way. I could not tell that it was over 18 years 
old already! This year makes the 4th season for the 4 since its restoration 
and the top still fits the same as the first time it was installed.
