I have a multiple undesired experience on raining trip - My suggestion are a adesive ribbonfrom the top and the windshield there if you drive" FAST" air pressure can fit rain water directly in your and passenger eyes - if your top aren't oldest -not worry- normally I haven't any infiltration from it, on my LHD TD only the elbow are in a wet position, on my TC I haven't raining driving , but during the trip from the barn to home (car rigged on tow truck) a very heavy storm occur, at the arrival at home the interior was perfectly dry, and top was more than 30 years olds (no holes or rips)

Bob,If you are driving in a good solid rain the canvas duck leaking will be the least of your worries. If your TC is like most you will be wondering where all the water inside is coming from. An old MG owner once told me the leaky weather equipment was a factory design as, if it all fit tightly the exhaust fumes would kill you..[img]

[b]Subject:[/b] [mg-tabc] Canvas duck treatment As hurricane season approaches here on the East coast, there will be times when motoring in our canvas topped MG's, when we will be wondering how well our canvas repels water.Not having any experience in driving 7794 in the rain, I have my doubts about the 5 hour trip to British Invasion in Stowe, VT next week.Any suggestions on improving water proofing? Or just forget about it and expect the worst?Bob BrennanTC7794EXUS.Freeport,ME
