I had the top installed by a Robbins Certified installer here in Massachusetts. The new top was difficult to get up, requiring a lot of tugging and convincing. Both Robbins and the installer said that a few months out in the sun would relax the top, but it did not. In speaking to a high end custom top installer a few years later he told me that the rear sections of the Robbins top were cut too tight and that was a recurring problem he had had with TR6 Robbins tops re: getting them to go up easily. That being said, the top looks great and, to my mind, make the car look great. </div><div><span style="white-space:pre-wrap"> </span>I’d be curious to know if others on the list with Robbins Stayfast tops have had the same experience.</div><div><span style="white-space:pre-wrap"> </span>Best,</div><div><span style="white-space:pre-wrap"> </span>Bob</div><div><span style="white-space:pre-wrap"> </span>’72 TR6<br><div><br><blockquote type="cite"><div>On Jan 16, 2022, at 7:10 PM, Alex & Janet Thomson <<a href="mailto:aljlthomson@charter.net" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">aljlthomson@charter.net</a>> wrote:</div><br><div><div style="font-family:Helvetica;font-size:15px;font-style:normal;font-variant-caps:normal;font-weight:normal;letter-spacing:normal;text-align:start;text-indent:0px;text-transform:none;white-space:normal;word-spacing:0px;text-decoration:none"><div style="margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt;font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif"><span style="font-size:12pt;color:rgb(31,73,125)">We were fine with going to TRF.<u></u><u></u></span></div><div style="margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt;font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif"><span style="font-size:12pt;color:rgb(31,73,125)"><u></u> <u></u></span></div><div style="margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt;font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif"><span style="font-size:12pt;color:rgb(31,73,125)">Alex Thomson<u></u><u></u></span></div><div style="margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt;font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif"><span style="font-size:12pt;color:rgb(31,73,125)"><u></u> <u></u></span></div><div style="margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt;font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif"><span style="font-size:12pt;color:rgb(31,73,125)">TR6<u></u><u></u></span></div><div style="margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt;font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif"><span style="font-size:12pt;color:rgb(31,73,125)">GT6<u></u><u></u></span></div><div style="margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt;font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif"><span style="font-size:12pt;color:rgb(31,73,125)"><u></u> <u></u></span></div><div><div style="border-style:solid none none;border-top-width:1pt;border-top-color:rgb(181,196,223);padding:3pt 0in 0in"><div style="margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt;font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif"><b><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:Tahoma,sans-serif">From:</span></b><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:Tahoma,sans-serif"><span> </span>Triumphs [<a href="mailto:triumphs-bounces@autox.team.net" style="color:rgb(149,79,114);text-decoration:underline" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">mailto:triumphs-bounces@autox.team.net</a>]<span> </span><b>On Behalf Of<span> </span></b>dave northrup<br><b>Sent:</b><span> </span>Sunday, January 16, 2022 6:28 PM<br><b>To:</b><span> </span><a href="mailto:triumphs@autox.team.net" style="color:rgb(149,79,114);text-decoration:underline" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">triumphs@autox.team.net</a><br><b>Subject:</b><span> </span>[TR] Robbins Top<u></u><u></u></span></div></div></div><div style="margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt;font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif"><u></u> <u></u></div><div style="margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt;font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif">Thinking of buying a Robbins cloth top for my TR6.<u></u><u></u></div><div style="margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt;font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif"><u></u> <u></u></div><div style="margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt;font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif">Where’s the best place to buy one?
