It is illegal in California to drive with the windshield down. The law is
very clear on this.

Really? Too bad, it is a blast!

Up here in Ontario Canada, the law says you have to have a working wiper
and no obstructions..... Don't say crap about having glass there....

I have had her up to about 50 mph on a beer run from a trail camp. That
was fast enough, the front end just whips the wind at you.

Jeff,
California law says: "shall be equipped with an adequate
windshield." It doesn't say anything about it having to be in the up
position: http://www.dmv.ca.gov/pubs/vctop/d12/vc26700.htm I have been
ticketed for leaving the windshield back at camp, though.

Hi Dave,
It only took me about six months to learn my lesson back in '67,
just before I bought my first Real Jeep. It was just like the picture in
the last link. Aluminum body, two six volt batteries, underneath wood
floor boards, positive ground, and couldn't keep the front end aligned.
Yes, I've watched them sell on television's Barrett-Jackson auction.
Bought mine for two grand, sold it for four hundred. But it worked for
transportation during one of my T-Bird engine rebuilds. Another car I
kick myself for selling for seventy five bucks was my '37 woody, which
another sold for half a million dollars:
