Convertible Hood Colours

[John Wood]

What colours were available from new?
I know you can get any colour you want now but what was manufactured when the car was current.

TR7 Sprint SJW550S
TR7 Automatic

[Chris Turner]

John, they were black, usually with black dash, followed by Blue and Tan with the grey dash. Black continued to be available with grey dash until the end of production.

I understand that the Canley models had black, the earlier Solihull models had a choice of black, blue or tan and that the later Solihull models reverted to black only. I note however that the last TR7 made currently in a museum has a tan hood. supercass

The later/last models used up what ever was left in stock. There is a local car that is close to here that was made in the last day(s) of production that had blue velour door cards and blue plaid seats. Using up what ever was in stock.

It's up for sale, might see it this weekend if the weather is good (not raining) and it's not sold.\
