Some euro cars were fitted with plexi sliding windows. This is a racing version with interesting side view mirrors as well. Those harnesses look quite tasty eh ?

At Cavallino in 2007, I figured I might be docked something when the lights fogged up the morning of the Concours. Judges looked at it, laughed and said every F40 they had seen does it at some point ! Nothing docked, went on to win platinum and the major for best F40. I'm a little OCD though, it will be addressed at the next major due soon.

It works, but sometimes the leak is so large, that outside water seeps in...I had some enter during a wash and I had it re-sealed. Also, excessive water tends to corrode the defogger strips as well...
