Ed & Triumph Folks,
Radical? I've got an idea - take a 1959 TR3A and modify it by making it a
one-seater with an ME109-style cockpit. Add a single vertical stabilizer
(rudder) behind the driver. Place gizmos all around it (manifold oil
injection for smoke, water cannons, rocket launchers, radio jammers, blinding
strobe lights, etc...) controlled from an inside that looks like the flight
engineer`s panel of a 747, and contains enough wire to go to the Moon and
back. Paint the whole thing desert camouflage with subdued USAF marking,
and take it to a Triumph Register Of America National Meeting and enter
it in Concours.
Oooops, forgot. Been there, done that. Nevermind!

BTW: We watched Mystery Science Theater 3000 this Sunday morning. The movie
they spoofed was "Manos - Hands Of Fate". Absolutely miserable movie (so bad
it`s funny, even without the wisecracking comments from the show staff), but
it did have a couple "sucking face" in a MKII (I think) Spit. Highlight of
the movie.
