Amici:
Do you all remember when editor, author, photographer, Art Eastman pulled our
chain with an electronically doctored picture of a TR3 with NASCAR graphics
and an unbelievable roll cage for his VINTAGE MOTORSPORT article on roll bars
and roll cages in 'classic' vintage cars? At the time there was a thread
running through the FOT as to whether the car existed and whose it was. Art
finally came clean and said, "Yes it exists, but only in my mind." With all
the
cars Art Eastman knows and loves, he has a special place in his heart for the
TRIUMPH TR3.
