Exactly. And if either those vehicles was a rag top,

'63 E-type was called a OTS for Open Two Seater - and
it was a drop head coupe'.

Actually (to be pedantic) there was never a drop-head coupe MGA as that
entails roll-up windows. The only convertible MGA was a roadster, not a DHC.
The Jag XK 120 came both ways as I recall - OTS and DHC, the latter with
more elaborate lined soft top.
