Subject: [Spits] I WILL get one running!

So Friday was the 34th birthday of Team Net.  It has been a lot of work, 
but I do plan on keeping it going as long as I am able.  And yesterday I 
went on a drive with the British Motor Club of Utah.  It was a pleasant 
morning, did 130 miles round trip.  Had a nice lunch at Little Taste of 
Britain in Layton, Utah.

But did I drive a British car?  No.  I drove my Nissan Pathfinder.  I 
have no British cars running.  But I am energized at the moment, plan on 
getting a Spitfire on the road by the end of summer.  Most likely the 
squaretail I drove a few years ago.  Clutch blew up, I replaced it.  It 
should be a matter of bolting the tranny back to the motor.  Then 
replacing fluids, getting a new battery no doubt, and getting it running 
again.  I'll send a picture or two of the project.

I will get it running.  When remains to be seen.

mjb.
