That's why I have one of those fancy Healeys with a convertible top and roll-up windows:

Knowing its still British my guess is that you get wet, drafty and takes a little work to set up.

LOL Mine too, it also gets you wet, noisy and windblown with a max speed of 55mph.

That ad is always good for a laugh in the Healey community. It's a legit ad from the '60s, but even when they offered a convertible top and roll-up windows, none of that so-called weatherproofing was worth a damn. The Fiat 124 Spider i had in college, OTOH, was a whole different story. Top you could raise and lower with one hand, fantastic heater and defroster and a car I could drive all winter in Massachusetts with no problem, unless we talk about the rust.

Back in the day I had a new 1966 MGB with the heater and roll up windows. The third year of the B. Actually it was pretty good during cold -20 NH winters and no water leaks. I wanted a Healey but couldn't afford one.
