I dunno Chris. Have you ever been inside a really hot (not talkin'
engines here) Healey, in the middle of the summer, in the San Fernando
Valley, or Phoenix, with the temp gauge on its peg, the heater on to
assist engine cooling, 108 degrees F in the shade, sun beating down on
your head? During the summer the side curtains on my Healey out but
the hood stayed up until the sun went down.
