Welcome to the club and good to see that you have impeccable taste in driving a 216 Cabriolet.
Although I can’t help with the hood problem, I am sure that someone in the club will come up with a solution.
Thanks for the tip - I won’t let a dozen people sit on mine!

Me for one, but there is no accounting for illogical action when you fall in love.
