?Happy New Year Listers When I purchased my Tiger this past summer it did not come with a hardtop. I checked back three owners...but no sign of any hardtop. They say a little knowledge is dangerous..

Not sure about the GT's, but I understand for all other Tigers the hard top could be ordered from the factory with the car and it would be painted the car color. If the car came without a hardtop and

The only non-installed factory hardtop I ever saw was at Broughton Motors in San Antonio back in 1967. It was hanging from the wall in the Parts Department -- and was in red primer. Should'a bought i

Tigers came in Roadster and GT models; the GT has a standard hardtop because it does not have the convertible top. Generally if the top was ordered with the car; it was painted body color, if ordere

There is some debate whether Rootes actually shipped some Tigers that were not Gran Turismo models with matching hardtops if they were ordered with the car. Norm Miller and I have copies of the same

The Alpine S3 and later hardtops definitely work on a Tiger. I sold the white hardtop off my SIV Alpine "ST" to a Mk2 tiger guy, and the white top on his red Tiger looks sharp. Also, I use the black

On the later style hardtops i can only think of a few changes: 1. The swicth from smaller to larger chrome buttons on the opening 1/4 windows in an attempt to stop them crazing the windows. 2. Chang

Another hardtop question.... Did any hardtops come from the factory vinyl covered? I have assumed "no" in the past; and that my hardtop's vinyl covering was put on by the PO. HOWEVER...Taylor's book

None of the tops came from the factory with a vynil covered top, however it was a popular period modification on the cars, As for the Hartwell 6, all those mKII's got speced up with options, tech-del
