Topless in New England, in February!
...Hush your dirty minds, now; I'm referring to the fact that it was 50 degrees here today, so the little guy and I got to fulfill our "one drive in each month with the convertible top down" pledge.

It was fun.

1. I did the same thing many times when it was lightly snowing.
Only it wasn't the whole roof, just t-tops (Corvette).

I loved it too, and enjoyed the "look at that crazy fool" looks of my townsfolk.

2. Imagine the looks we got on our December "top-down day:"


I've never had a car with T-tops, but I think I'd like it. The expansive view you get with no roof, but with less wind ruckus than a full convertible.

A last-generation 300ZX would be nice (they are gorgeous), but you can't find any that haven't been beat to hell, unfortunately.

5. cool beans
makes me miss my '99 Firebird with the T-top. It had a Trans Am hood. Boo Hoo, my mid life crisis car, gone forever. My son wrecked it last year on an icy road. I swore I'd never let any of the boys drive it! Enjoy yours always.
