Hello,
Are the running board support bars standard?
I have only seen them in this borrowed picture from this forum, but I'd like to know if they should be on the touring car.

Gang,
For a parade, what are your thoughts on seating someone, (with the top down), on the raised back edge of the rear seat?
I'm kind of on the fence about it. It seem a bit unsafe to me.
I've got a line on a barbershop quartet that wants a ride.
What are your thoughts?
Thanks,
