blistered lids

[Tessie McMillan <tessmc@domain.elided>]

Someone mentioned the paint on the inside of their Spider's engine lid 
was suffering from heat. He asked if the lid was supposed to be 
insulated. The only reply I saw was a comment that it was probably due to 
a poor paint job.

Well, now *I'm* curious. My '87 has original paint throughout. There was 
slight blistering over the air intake/oil filler when I bought the car in 
'95. I didn't think twice about it at the time; I thought it was a 
byproduct of design (and it hasn't gotten much worse -- the paint, not 
the design). *Is* this unusual for other Spider owners?
