Texture vs no texture. What I want to know is: are there drain holes at the forward end of the tonneau's attachment to the dash for taking the water to ground without flooding the interior? No doubt having the tonneau is better than no tenneau.

Winter driving with half tonneau in place and heat set to max is for me the real cat's meow. It may seem lame brained, but wearing a helmet when the weather has soured is very comfortable top down attire. Don't guffaw until you've tried it. Keep em on the road, love seeing tubs coming or going.

Glen,

The tonneau cover actually worked very well. There were valleys alongside the wing windows that neatly drained any accumulation over the side of the car. Since the new top still has some fit issues, believed the tonneau cover kept more water out than the soft top would have.

Going to try the helmet one of these days.

Best,

DJ.

A shot of a new shop in Murray, UT. with lots of very nice cars to receive some TLC. Jack, with arms folded, did the engine/transaxle/final mechanicals/trouble shoot and fixing the work that other less competent people did on my car.

He was the bright light on getting my car on the road this past summer. He is a good fellow and can be trusted all the way.

I always enjoy shooting detail images of 356s, just for something different.
This one is from my A coupe.
