I don't want the antique split because the visor >above the two windshields makes a loud houling noise. The Split is the coolest road vehicle ever designed! I had a 57 and 66, and never heard a noise from the front roof overhang. Or the rest of the roof, for that matter. Not even at 80mph (yes, a 57 with 1600 & split-case trans will easily do 80 but will shorten engine life...). If you've heard a howl from one, are you sure it didn't have a roofrack? These can generate an awful wail.
