[Tigers] Hardtop color

[Robert Neeley]

I am about to do a complete repaint of my Tiger to its original color,
including the hardtop.  I know/think/believe that the hardtops were
originally available only in black, although I have seen many/most painted
to match body color.  What is the 'correct' color scheme to maintain
originality?  Were the black hardtops intended to be painted or remain black
regardless of body color?

Thanks!
