With all the talk of top down driving in the rain and sleeping in a TB only to wake and find it covered with snow, this thread definitely brings to mind the saying "Mad dogs and Englishmen".
Lord love you for it, guys.

Well I can not say I did that but I did drive it every day before I took it
apart to save it from a certain death and then started a much needed
restoration...really miss DRIVING it. It was my only car too.

Hobbies and games should be treated with deadly seriousness, while business
and life in general should be treated as a game"
