Default Vette goin' into a parade..

Letting a friend use the vette for his daughter's homecomming parade.
I know the fiberglass can't take much weight- anyone ever let someone sit on the roof right behind the seat with the T-tops off?

...or do I make the 'lil girl stand up in the seat?

Here is a discussion from a few days ago...I think the consensus was stand and lean, but not sit on the t-bar.

Letting a friend use the ?
Who is driving? Friend driving with his daughter sitting on the car? I might be persuaded to do parade duty... (although I did promise my car "never again") IF the girl was pretty enough!! :lol: BUT, I would have to drive! No way would I let somebody else drive my vette, especially in a parade!

That would just be way too much to explain to my insurance company......
- Was she wearing a seatbelt?
........of course not! It was a parade! She was sitting on top of the car!

- Oh, I see.. well, did you accelerate excessively?

..... No, I didn't, i wasn't er... actually driving..... :(

His daughter is beautiful.....and only 17. Yeah, I am swapping it for his mini-van for the night. I think I'll go cruising for some ricers in it and see what trouble I can get into.
