Yeah - drive past it every day

T'is a nice blue colour now.

Will have to stop and have a look inside. It just sits in the rain - so i am guessing it has rubber seats and mats along with some BIG drain holes ???:alien

A carson top is a removable hard top. usually made with a wire/steel frame padded and trimmed. Though you do see some fibreglass ones too.
