If the ovals to be parked in a garage now and then, it should be dry enough with a rag top on it...

Man, do it i say, i would! Character to the max. Otherwise it would be 'just' another oval :dork: Love the look of a rag top

The Oval's on a 68 auto chassis, 1916, L-box, four-wheel discs, Recaros etc so it's not "perfect". But I am re-restoring it with fresh paint and trim later this year

GTMac - June 9th, 2008 at 09:02 AM

Yeah do it, you have no other projects holding you up at the moment! :lol:
