eBay and SC Parts among others

Listers:

=20

Every time I saw a newer sport convertible with a plastic shield behind =
the
front seats, I wanted one for my Healey because after 50 MPH the wind
blowing from behind is a tremendous force which will blow your hat off =
and
discourage your female passenger from ridding with you when the top is =
down.
I had seen that https://www.lbcarco.com had Wind blockers for all LBC, =
but,
not the big Healey.  So I considered building my own and looked them up =
on
the site to see how they were constructed, found the now have a Wind =
blocker
for the big Healey, and immediately ordered it for $175.00. =20

=20

In the past 2 days since installing Wind Blocker, it has become my best
purchase to give comfort to my top down driving.  In Florida in the =
winter
it is the land of top down driving and I have not put up the top for 2
years.  I may never put up the top, unless I am going hundreds of miles =
in
the hot sun. =20

=20

I used a piece of =BE inch PVC pipe cut to the distance between the =
posts and
a little more so the pipe wedged between the posts and laying on the top
frame holds up the Tonneau cover tightly so there is little drape. I was
able to wrap and fold the Tonneau around the posts to get a good seal.  =
May
attach straps later to complete the seal.

=20

Highly recommended for those who love to drive our LBC=92s with the top =
down.
Best toy for your Healey.  I have no interest in lbcarco.  Also, the =
product
is hard to find as you have to scroll down the list of special offers to
find, however, it is in the search field under Tonneau. =20

=20

Sorry about the poor pictures in the garage, finally, it is raining.
