I see that "The Madness" has taken hold of you. Great time of the day for a drive! Cool pics.
says it is 33 out today.. Damn It..... car will stay in. or maybe not ;-)
Nice looking car and photos. Nice to see that they've improved the road.
Think about looking for a used 12v motorcycle plug-in coveralls type thing. Good ones keep you toasty well below 20 degrees F.
If you have a tonneau cover, get the heater on max and it'll fill the covered side of the cockpit with enough coming out from under to help you out a lot. At the least your right side and arm will be good.
I saw a guy in a Triumph TR4 with a hood sewn onto his tonneau cover. It was OD color so maybe he cut it off an old M65 field jacket or something surplus. He was on the freeway south of Portland, OR driving along at 60+ mph in the rain with the cover all buttoned down and his hooded noggin sticking out. The crazy sucker was smiling and waving at the people in cars as they passed by.
Thing is, where there's a will there's a way, right?

Actually, I don't mind driving with the top up, I know it is not the same effect, but I have added a little length to the curtians (Duct Tape folded over) so the wind does not come back into the cabin. Stays OK with the sun out. I am waiting for it to be above 50 for the top to be down and full tonneau goes on.
