Here’s where to discuss anything specific about your standard(ish) car or something that applies to the model in general.

I decided to contact honeybourne to see if they can still make their hardtop and received the response, below, so if anyone knows of an original honeybourne top that they could use to make a new master mould they would like to hear from you.

Regards

Howard

Howard: Yes we do need one of our hardtops as a pattern to take a mould from and I would be very grateful of any help in locating one.
Best regards

Karen,

I assume that what you need is the loan of one of your original hardtops so that you can create another mould from it? Have you considered posting an enquiry on one of the specialist TR7 web discussion groups - if not would I would be more than happy to post one for you.

Regards

Howard

The TR7 photo with Hardtop on the Quiller site is exactly the same as the honeybourne photo, so clearly the same one. When I called Quiller they told me that they had none in stock but had them made to order .....

Still looking

Howard
