I *think* that the middle of the body tub is shared all thruout the
big-body (TR4-TR6) line.
I know they use the same door skins, and the same front windshield
capping. The radius around the center of the rear is also the same.
Anyone got both a TR6 & TR4/4A/250/5? Care to make some measurement &
comparisons??
I had a TR6 top on my TR4; however the DPO claimed it was a custom job
done by a boat shop. (was ripped to shreds by the time I got to it).
Maybe sometime I will try to fit my TR4 hardtop on a TR6.
