[406Special]

Has anyone (perhaps Ashley J) got ideas of a firm who does customsied soft top conversions from original hard tops like the 401-406 and onwards here in the UK. Clearly a 405 was done and so was a 402 from a 401, but I am thinking that my 406 may look the part as a convertible (am I mad?). Maybe it's the lovely weather I have enjoyed mowing the lawn or the need for air conditioning to cool off after jumping into a car that's been sitting in the sun for 4 hours (like today in Abingdon, Oxfordshire). Obviously I would need the thing designed with a suitable folding frame and fabric hood. The good news is that I could possibly avail myself of a standard off the shelf heated glass screen from say a Merc/BMW or other recent model. With modern fabric, soundproofing/padding and internal material, it ought to be waterproof and reasonably quiet. I think it would add value in spite of my left of field engine option. Liked being in Peter Kent's 412, except its looks are best admired from the inside.
