Hi List,

Here's the deal:  My car has no soft top, but I have a hard top.  I am
considering driving the car from SoCal to Monterey next week, but of course,
I would rather not drive up the coast with the lousy hard top on the car!
But then, of course, I am taking my chances with mother nature.

I have a car cover, which is not waterproof.  To address being potentially
caught in some precipitation, I am considering purchasing a plastic tarp,
which I can throw over the passenger compartment before I put on the car
cover.  At this time of year in California, the most likely precipitation
would be a light rain or very heavy marine layer. A deluge is pretty rare in
the middle of summer.

I know that there are several roadster owners out there without any tops
that have doubtless had to deal with this obvious conundrum!  Any tips on
how to most responsibly deal with such irresponsibility?  (.Or, feel free to
berate me for my proposed idiocy!)
