After years of procrastination I finally finished fitting the NICAL hardtop and side curtains (they were the real bear) that I bought a long time back and had it and the car painted.
I know hardtops are not for everyone but I am one of those that thinks they grace the lines of our cars, even if the aftermarket tops for 100's have to be shortened a bit.
I have had my dose of UV's and don't miss going bareback, though it is no big deal to take the hardtop off. With the side curtains off the car is very civilized and the aft-facing rallye scoop brings a nice breeze into the cockpit. The side curtains NICAL supplies are sliders and provide a reasonably snug fit on the cold days such as we are now having, though I don't think they will seal against rain very well.
