OldGuyFla liked post by gbhrps On thread : any issues with leaving top down for extended periods?

dirod123, I use my Z the same way you do. Its just a toy and it never leaves the garage if there is a hint of rain. The down side of long storage of the roof folded up is: if mice take up...

LennyK liked post by gbhrps On thread : Considering the future of my Z Roadster
