That reminds me of driving home a newly purchased Roadster that didn't
have a hood lock or rear catches for the hardtop. While on the highway the
hood would lift several inches and the hardtop would lift in the rear. I
suppose that looked pretty funny to the other drivers. It was a real
surprise at first, then I just spent the rest of the trip holding the top
down with my left arm (it was cold out too) and let the laws of physics keep
the hood from bouncing up too high.
Only for a Roadster.
