Sweet and simple. I only need a zip out rear window. Got me a house 5000btu window A/C unit that would just set on the luggage rack with the correct foam pad under it and the face of it fit in the rear window. Duct tape around it and then run the unit off of a 600 watt inverter in the trunk. :lol: You gotta love it and it would be frosty cold inside that cockpit :laugh:

You know, I saw a pic like that one time, had a small trailer with a generator on it.

...or just take your top and windshield off.


....and setup your windscreen washers to pull from a 5 gallon jug of pure water, misting you as you drive. :jester:

I remember just two weeks ago when somebody said it looked cold in Gaydon. Well, it's beautiful now (and it really wasn't cold in Gaydon). I don't have to wear a long sleve shirt in the morning and I can stay up till 11:30 and it's still light outside. Not to mention the sun comes up at 3:30 am. Heck, I can even work outside in mid-day sun. I was doing bricks this weekend.
Gotta love it!

There is nothing new under the sun...especially when the sun is as HOT as it's been here in the south lately...
