My wifes 72 TR6 which is an imaculate Damson (dark redish purple) came with an
equally imaculate hardtop with a less than imaulate heavy tapestry liner of
dark red, orange and cream colored paisey. We refer to it during hardtop
weather as her mobile bordello. Boy... I sure hope we don't have to go
through the 60's again.....
