Welcome Jim!

Any pictures of the car? The motor sounds rather cool as well!!

You can go through Ames or one of the like though there are other's who have
gone all out and bought a Hertz top. Others, like Bjorn in Houston, never
put the top up... LOL

Not sure on the manual discs but that sure would be nice at times!
