i totally agree with the sun exposure thought. plus, on a hot day in Texas
driving a convertible can be unbearable.
i saw an MG TD? that had used the convertible top frame (on those cars its
not attached to the roof) to support a "bimini top" which snapped to the
windshield like the regular top and then covered the passengers. in lieu of
back/side windows etc there were just straps to the snaps.
now, how to implement that on a roadster . . .
