[Roadsters] soft tops

[Gary and Cindy Ault]

Geeeez!  I had no idea there were so many softies out there!  In 1972, I took my roadster from Orange County to Parker Dam in mid-summer.  Given everything we needed to take for the weekend, I had a choice between the top and the spare.  So, we left the top at home.  It was hotter then H___ driving over. Even the air coming in through the vent windows, turned so they caught the air, was hot.  Now, the drive back through the sandstorm near Twentynine Palms and the cold and rain re-entering the LA basin on Sunday were pretty miserable.  But the desert without the top?  Bearable.

"Hot summer sun"..."top up".  What's wrong with this picture?

The first year I drove to Shasta I had the top down. Burnt the tops of my ears so bad that I was miserable for quite a while. The zip down window is great.
