Default Rear deck lid question

Happy 4th!

Today being a day of celebration and parades, I have a question about the sturdiness of the rear deck lid on a C2 convertible.

Specifically, can it support the weight of someone sitting on it? Anyone ever done that?

Thanks,
Steve

Yes they will. Have seen many young girls sometimes two at a time in old parades over the years sitting on them.

Thanks!

So, one or two lightweights, good. Chris Christie and Tyrus, bad. Got it.

Take care,
Steve
