TR4/4A When did the short bubble stop?

Did Piggott have a production# where the long bubble hood was introduced?? I have an early Tr4
and would like to use the correct bonnet.

The bonnet on my 1961 TR4, Commission No. CT 281 L, has the short bubble.
 
Best I can determine my car was near the change over, so G.O.K. what was installed originally.
I have moved forward and refurbished the shorty. When I did the restoration on CT 74L the bonnet
took almost a week to repair it. This one only took 3 days.....but this includes the stiffening of the edges
between the front and rear support braces.
