left.


I guess I will never understand a theif, but I really cant understand  one 
that would steal such a car as this.  The market for these cars, or  ever as 
parts, as much as I'd love to have one, is pretty small.  Surely if  someone 
showed up with this car, even re-painted, at a race, plenty of people  would 
recognize it.
 
A year or so ago, someone stole an MG T series from  a fellows drivew  way, 
in a trailer, very similar story.  It was an award winning  restoration, but 
again, where would you sell one????

63 TR4

As he stared at her ample  bosom, he daydreamed of the dual Stromberg
carburetors in his vintage  Triumph, highly functional yet pleasingly formed, 
perched prominently on top of  the intake manifold, aching for experienced 
hands, the small knurled caps of the  oil dampeners begging to be inspected and 
adjusted as
described in chapter  seven of the shop manual.
