Hi, everyone.

Just got back from a business trip to Reno, Nevada, where I finally took the
time to stop in at the Harrah's antique car museum downtown.

The cars change, I think.  While they didn't have a TR, they did have one of
the early Morgans (I think it was a '41?), a '49 MGTC, and an early 50's Jag.
Beautiful cars.

But...I have to say, the best of show in my view, and the most beautiful car I
have ever seen, was a 1923 Rolls Royce Silver Ghost, with one-piece polished
copper panels.

Many of you can probably attest to the beauty of this museum.  I have to say,
though, that I'm about half-way through my 1959 TR3A restoration and I still
haven't seen one up close since 1973.  I have GOT to get to an LBC event this
spring.  Anybody know of an early one coming up in the Northeast after this
winter?
