Hoods are a complete pain in our sort of vehicles-poor visibility,noisy and[at my age at least] difficult entry and exit.If caught in the rain,by the time one has stopped and set it up one is soaked anyway,better to keep going!For the last 50 or so years I have removed and stored the hood gear from Sevens 65 Chummy and special,MG and Morgans,I have driven to Spain and back with full camping outfit and no weather equipment whatsoever.All you need is a well-fitting tonneau ,cap or hat and waterproofs of choice.
