[TR] tonneau strap

[Geo Hahn]

Okay, I just read the digest response that mentioned 'the seat pan'.  My
photos are of the later seat (no pan) so it may be the case that a tonneau
from an early TR4 will have a longer strap than a tonneau from a later TR4
- which may account for Andrew's strap seeming to be short.
