Wow!  nice to know that the TR6 has adequate cooling for itself.  Too
bad the passengers couldn't sweat enough to cool off!  Wait a
minute...  You said passengers, (meaning more than one!)...  Uh, who
was driving?(!)  :-)  Actually I had 3 passengers and a driver in my
TR6 once, but that is another story.  So what's the record folks?
Anyone have 10 people in a sprite?

Cool...  Paul and I had a similar experience when we followed a Jag
E-type up skyline drive a bit...  Thanks for the report Greg, it was
fun reading and congratulations on a successful trip!


WATER PUMPS...

I bought a new waterpump from Moss last spring at their N.J. show.  It
was the last one they had and I couldn't have gotten home without
it...it doesn't have a grease fitting.  However, it does pump coolant
quite well!
