Hey Guys,
What a hoot! Took the 3B out for a run today, first to the auto parts store
and then to the car wash. A guy literally followed me into the car wash and
proceeded to tell me all kinds of stories of how his first car was a 62 TR3.
I asked him if it was a B but he really didn't know. He said he bought it
for $450 when he was 16 drove it for a year then sold it for $750 only because
a guy was bugging him so much and had to have. He said it was very reliable
never had a problem with it. When I popped the bonnet the guys eyes bugged
out and I believe we will have another Triumph owner in the near future .
Then I stop at he Booze store to stock up for the upcoming NATC, picked up
some Old Leg Hummer for Marty's Brew Swap, ( So Many Legs So Little Time) and
dang it the guy there doesn't tell me that his first car was a TR3A. He said
he paid $400 bucks for it for it needed a drive shaft, drove it for 3 year
and the bought a TR4A. He was focused on Triumphs are big time better than
MG's for he like the torque that Triumphs offered. I just said variety is the
spice of life and with MG's you have the rubber bumper and chrome bumper and
we
all know what we have with our Triumphs.
