How does it look mounted on the rear valance? That curved part might just fit the back panel. That should stop the tail enders. prob a better idea !!

Managed my usual 30 mile shakedown run yesterday. Warm weather, partly sunny sky, what’s not to enjoy.
5 miles from home and the heavens opened, car and driver - soaked!
Glorious North Wales!

Lovely sunlit 4C run out today to Newton Abbot and return, you get a good view of Dartmoor on the way and it's a nice Morgan/motorbike road.

Might feel compelled to visit there one day when the sun is out.

How do you make the hood stay up like that & does it act as wind / noise reducer? Together with 2 other reprobates from here I did a nice 86 mile trip to Dovercourt & Harwich and back, Refreshments were provided by the local Wetherspoons in Harwich.  Coming back the high tide meant the Orwell had flooded the road near / under the Orwell bridge so on returning the car was hosed off , entailing another blast down to Felixstowe to dry it.  So much fun to be had at 4c with the sun shining.

I made this contraption, it clips to the folded hood frame and the hood simply lies over it. Also it tilts the rear window a little forward and sits just low enough to give a clear rearward view over it. Yes it does reduce wind buffeting, although not completely. Minikeefy has a similar contraption which allows rearward vision through the window, but that would be too low for me. After a trial I realised that it would scrape the rear window so I added some black felt. Also I don’t need the tonneau and it makes raising the roof a 30 second job ![[Linked Image]](https://www.tm-img.com/images/2022/01/05/ED187EA0-5D9F-47F6-8D93-B77018E0217F.jpg)

Thanks that is clever. I guess with a 9 stud hood that is a help. Not sure if I could do that on the easy up hood.
