The last few days have been uncharacteristically chilly here in North Carolina, 
and 
so I've been driving my 79B with the top up.  It just shouldn't be that way 
here in 
early September.

Anyway, with the top up, I hear more sounds from the car than otherwise.  One 
I've 
been hearing has me a little concerned.  There's some kind of noise coming from 
the 
back end that only occurs when I'm lightly feathering the throttle.  It's not 
there 
under decent acceleration, or when I'm completely off the throttle.  Just when 
I'm 
trundling along barely on the throttle to keep speed on a flat road.

It's hard to describe, but I was wondering if someone might be able to relate 
to this 
experience.

I have recently checked the oil level in the differential, and new universal 
joints have 
been installed recently.
