got any pics?
I have often thought it would be nice if the rear window zipped out (like my jeep)

pull the release
tie a cord around the lock pin
lift the last bow up
then tie to a center bow.

Now that I think about it, I had a '60 Impala vert and the back window did zip down. Wonder why they dropped that idea? It seems like that would be good to have on the vette.

1. it rains
2. gets chilly at night
3. some girls complain the wind messes up their hair. :cheers:
