CA Newb with an 88 convertible

Hi all. My 88 convertible was a trailor queen for many years. Everything but the battery, brakes and alternator is original. I love the Wankel and the great handing. So much fun when I get a chance to open it up!!!

Well they leak in the rain. Some of the weatherstripping was not layered correctly. It took me a bit to figure it out but it's an easy fix. A little 3M weatherstrip adhesive and re layering and I haven't had a problem.

I bought a Vert expecting to be "scared" as I am so used to having something solid above my head..you know,just in case of a roll over.
Funny thing though,is that once you get in the car that feeling just goes away.I felt at ease because you feel so "inserted" into the car that you just wanna get up and Boogie with it........wind flingin around that ONE hair that ya got left..heh,heh!!
