Some more towing shenanigans. Who'd have thought that a 2 seater convertible would be a great choice when an ad says, "please bring a truck".




Lately I've been looking at ways to cut tire noise, so I can up the PSI. Once these are worn I'll switch to something more efficient. My latest bit was finding the bottom of the trunk is a drum, so I threw some sound damping and foam pad over it, and stuffed small blankets into the vent/deadspace that connects the trunk to the cabin. Small but noticeable improvement.
