[Fot] TR8 direction

[Doug Mitchell]

If anyone is interested, I have a photo of the Buick engine on a stand taken
at the GM Heritage Center
in Sterling Heights, Michigan.

I sort of keep looking for a TR8 as there is a family connection to the
engine. I need to get rid of the
Stag before I can even think about bringing home another car. There is one
near me for sale, but I
just don't have the space for one at this time.

More than a few people think that aluminum engine is one of the best 
engines ever built.  We had one in a Buick mid-sized convertible, and it was
a 
great little car.  Pound for pound...it sure had a lot of power.
