   Compared  to  the  refrigerator  boxes with wheels that the later TR's
   resembled I would certainly say that our swoopy, flowing fendered TR's
   that  allow  us  to  drag  our knuckles certainly evoke a more elegant
   profile.

          The TR3A, built from 1957 to 1961, was the most
          elegant of Triumphs, before they became boxy and,
          later, wedgelike. Mr. Rhodes got his more than 15
          years ago for $4,200. It was his second.

     ELEGANT?  Not a word I'd ever have chosen to describe a TR3A. Don't
     get me wrong, as I love them, but....
