Okay All,
I've booked my trip. I arrive in Indianopolis on the afternoon of the 26th
of Dec. and head out on 12/27. For all you caring souls, I am having the car
completly checked out prior to departing.
I need a new soft top and am looking for your best recommendations. I am
going to buy one and have it shipped out to put on when I get there.
Additionally, I am going to be limited on space but would appreciate your
recommendations on a minimal emergency tool kit.
Your suggestions are appreciated.
Aloha,
Mark
