Open Cars with Tops Down

[Bruce Adams]

People who have seen my car 1000 times have only seen the top up in driving rain or snows.

Having a roadster or phaeton, and never putting the top down, is the silliest thing I have ever heard !

Nice pic,, old airplanes and even older cars go together.. To bad that 26 is breaking the 11th commandment [ tow-bar]..

That is a great pic of the 2 and the Cabriolet, the apple green wheels are sharp! 11th commandment lol, I love it! We had a tow bar for the space shuttle, it was about 3 times the size of that one.

The consensus is just as I thought. Riding around with the top down has little or no detrimental effects.

When ever I see people in an open car they always look like they are having a great time, top up or top down.

I hardly recognize mine if the top is up.. Its pretty much always down.. Its better that way anyway,, the wind noise covers up most of the rattles.. It goes up or down just fine,, there is a lot of ' flex ' in all them ole parts..

Just this past weekend our club went out to lunch. One of the members raised the top and for a moment I wondered what member owned the new car.

I don't have top rests for my 28 Phaeton and I've never driven it with the top down.

I did have it half way down 2 years ago so I could stitch a tear in the top material.
