That's the way I do most sports cars.  It was the only way  that worked in 
the SAAB Sonett.  If I tried any other method of getting  in, I'd get stuck 
halfway and need to reverse and start  again.





Ah...reminds me of the days in college with the 62 TR3...most young ladies  
didn't know this  trick and made quite a spectacle while I was the perfect  
gentleman helping her with the door.
