Just got to work in the hot rod, it was raining the whole way in and about 40 degrees. Mixed rain and snow thru Alger, but I was warm and mostly dry.
I still have a leak across the top of the windshield where the removable hardtop seals across the top of the windshield but only when going slow or parked, not on the freeway.
The acrylic side windows suck. They keep out the wind and the cold but they're just too flimsy. I noticed on the freeway the top of each window actually pulls out, away from the car!?! Looks like I'll have to add another seal edge with weatherstripping across the top edge of each window. The doors drop down slightly right when they open so i should be able to have the windows push up into a seal when the door closes, whereas now the windows just rest against a seal on the inside of the door.
Hey, not bad though all in all! I did 75 down the freeway in the driving rain, I was warm, and I got there dry, I'll take it! Definitely have some ish to work on but its a win in my book.
