Greetings to all,
If you have ever visited my website, you know it is devoted to my TR3B.
I get an average of one or two emails a week from people who stumble
across my site and want to tell me about their memories of somebody's
TR3, ask me a question, etc.
I recently got an email from a person going to school in Iowa, who asked
for my help in selling his father's TR3B. After a few emails back and
forth, here is what I got:

The Commission # is TCF698L.
The father's name is Rich, his work phone is 1-800-354-7433.
Obviously, I havn't seen the car. All disclaimers apply. I have no other
knowledge, other than they are thinking in the $10,500 range...
Matt's email is mgustafs@blue.weeg.uiowa.edu
BTW, I passed the info to Les Landon already, who passed on the deal.
Sounds like a good car. Any listers in Iowa want to call this guy, look
at the car and give us an opinion?
