>> Hello All,
>>=20
>> I am the proud owner of a 1958 Triumph TR3A Race Car which has not seen t=
he track since the engine blew in July 1979 at Riverside International Racew=
ay. Unfortunately the track is gone, but the car has been saved in a garage=
since then.
>>=20
>>=20
>> The car was raced in the 1970s throughout southern California in SCCA and=
CalClub events. It has period correct performance equipment and safety equ=
ipment as required in those days. The owner-driver was John Kerr. He is a t=
all lanky guy and the roll bar with it's seat are consistent with his height=
. Number 27 with SCCA logos.
>>=20
>> I heard many stories from John about his racing days in SoCal at breakfas=
t meetings with the Los Angeles based Triumph Clubs. I bought the car from h=
is niece.=20
>>=20
>> It took me about a week of tinkering to find out why the car had been sid=
elined. It ran for 30 seconds, which was 15 seconds to long. Clank, Clank,=
Clank. =20
>>=20
>> I have a fresh engine in it and the OD trans has been freshened up too. I=
am looking to bring this car back up to current vintage racing safety specs=
. =20
>>=20
>> I am an nuts and bolts kind of mechanic having built hot rods and street r=
acers, back in old days. I currently drive a 1966 Triumph TR4A, an MGB and a=
'55 Chevy for toys. =20
>>=20
>> Next weekend, Sept 23-24, I am planning on going to the VARA event at But=
tonwillow, Ca. near Bakersfield and hopefully engage their tech guys.
