61. 12 volts at idle (score: 1)

Rear chrome mounts perfectly. I was going to do the same, but after I saw how much more the ugly rubber one (with a lot of aluminum underneath) would protect the expensive paint job on my '79 spit, I

My top (hood?) leaks where it (doesn't) seals to the chrome piece atop the wind screen. It is a new seal and top. I've put some silicone where the rivets are to get a better seal, but it still has so

Please excuse my ignorance. I've heard the word plenty, but what is a 'B' post? Loosen the top mounting's on the 'B' post, and push the top up and as foward as it will go. Or try a new foam rubber se

If you were driving in the city, it sounds about right. Otherwise, it is a little low. I can get around 33 mpg when on a trip in my spit. That is a little above 210 miles on a tank. I have a '79, but
