Oh, GREAT! TeriAnn has inadvertantly started yet ANOTHER flame war over
TR originality! ;-)

Seems to me that both my Spring 1960 TR3As (71909 -- 3/28 and 73624 --
4/15) have top bows in a sort of beige color. The webbing I can't say
for sure, as I'm not sure either car's original webbing had survived even
until I'd bought the cars (early 1970s). My guess, though, would have
been either a beige or light grey.
The strap mounting plates were probably a "natural-finish"; again,
that's a guess from memory right now.
Certainly the colors might have changed over the years, and it's also
possible that replacement top bows were finished in different colors.
Are you going to tally the results on THIS one as well, TeriAnn? ;-)
