<VV> RE: Parade Comment

After thinking about it more I have had several BAD images going through my
head. 
If you are carting around a politician, what if he weighs 400 lbs and sits
on the convertible top damaging it, what if he smokes cigars?
What if you are carting a beauty queen? What if her spiked heal tears your
seat?
I don't think I would carry anyone around without having them sign a form
of my creation outlining what would be prohibited, and who would be liable
in event of damage.
Do the parade promoters carry insurance that would cover you????
Most likely they will ask you to sign a waiver of liability.

I once agreed to drive in a wedding once with one of my collector cars. I
pointed out from the start that NOTHING would be taped to my car..Period!
Told them to bring string so flowers and banner could be tied to the car.
Day of the wedding, guess what? The wedding party showed up with both
scotch and masking tape and no string to be found. Nothing went on my
car.......

Doug,

Some of the "parade quality" cars in our club are quite nice.  There is
concern about potential damage to the top material, the top bows, the seat
upholstery.  I'm only aware of one instance of damage.  A youngster (about 3
yrs of age) with dried mud on his feet was allowed by his mother to stand on
the rear seat with 18 month old Clark's upholstery.  A tootsie roll was also
mashed into the rear carpet on that same car - yeah, new carpet too.

We provide large pillows and/or thick foam rubber to boost the folks up high
on the rear seat so they can be seen by the parade watchers.
