Tonnuncho - combination tonneau cover and poncho. Something I've always wanted
but never got around to designing or having fabricated.
Driver's side would have a poncho opening for my head, with the draw string
operated from beneath (by necessity, of course).
Here in Kona, I hardly ever erect the soft top, maybe once a year - then leave
it up for a week or so, because of the trouble to put back down. (And, I sort
of like the appearance of my 'top up' roadster, as a variation.)
