This is from the guy that has a sedan and is waiting for me to post that I am freezing my backside off next year
You could always do what the Beemer boys do here in the East in February. Drop the top, roll up the windows, put on a down coat, ear muffs, gloves, scarf, turn the heater on full blast and head on down the interstate to work. Purists Who are they kidding???

Actually I am considering building a highboy roadster after I retire. Only difference between your desire and mine, is I plan on doing it after relocation to FLORIDA!!!!! You might want to consider doing the same. If you really like the Midwest, you could always be a snowbird. Florida could always use one more snowbird. Ain't that right Don???
