...and taking a look at this lovely car (what 4/4 does not have that
indescribable, shimmering beauty?), I started thinking about an old idea
I'd had for me own 4/4: a fold down windshield. Does anyone out there have
advice/comments/flames/suggestions for obtaining the proper mounting
hardware to convert my fixed windshield to a fold down style, with
accommodations for a pair of "Brooklands" screens?? There's precious
little room to mount the Brooklands. Any thoughts on this? I have vague
recollections that this subject was treated in the past year... sorry but
I've forgotten the details and can't seem to find a relevant message in my
files.
Also: a bit of non-morgan inquiry: Has anyone heard of a color called "RAF
blue?"
Finally; I would have taken me mog out for an inaugural 1998 spin yesterday
but the local road maintenance folks, in their wisdom, salted the area
roads on Saturday after a half inch snow. That brings the season total for
me in NJ up to about 3/4 of an inch! Treacherous!
Cheers,
Will Zehring
