This breaks my heart. But, to echo what was said on this list before, we're
glad you're alive Bob. Better the car goes bye-bye than you.
If it were me, that $6K would buy me a nice "new" Spitfire. $6K can go a
long way toward a gorgeous example of the most underappreciated (that is,
still relatively cheap) Triumphs. Lord knows I spent a lot less than that on
my '78 and I think I got a great car.
Good luck,
Eric.
