Italia guy on the FOT. Perhaps he will pop his head up and say something.
Lovely car and we are looking forward to it. It might go on display at
Mid-Ohio in June. Perhaps you will be back in the states?
Bitterly cold here now and new garage will have trusses in place by
tomorrow.
Have a Happy Christmas in Tokyo.
Joe

Dear Joe,
Hope the winter weather is being kind to you so far. But as the
axiom goes...Cold Weather = Warm Garage!
I'm not sure why I am remembering this question, but a I vaguely
remember you sharing an e-mail with someone on the list this fall
regarding an Italia being set-up for vintage racing. Any recollection of
this??
I would be curious about this project/car if it is indeed true. I
traded some e-mail with VTR a few years ago after reading an article
about the Italia. While it is not a unique piece of equipment with
regards to hp, etc., it is an attractive bit of Triumph history that
intrigues me.
Take care, and all the best for the Holidays.
JHH
P.S. Low 50's in temperature yesterday in Tokyo...passed a beautiful,
red wide-mouth TR3. First one I've seen here!
