#2 was a hood latch failure, looks like it took the hood out too due to the different color...

The silly things people do!
The hood one probably happened when the hood was not closed properly & the car was driven at speed. I saw one on the side of the road years ago. Windshield smashed, hood 1/2 mile back on the road, driver with badly cut face about to be taken to hospital.

Pink is not my color either!! What a waste of what should be a nice old 2 door soft top!!!

um... that rear door is a tad short for an SDL, which is what I assume they meant...
it's certainly not an SL...
is it an SD?
I'd like the wheels...
