[TR] What is that thing?

[cfmtr3a at verizon.net]

It would be a lot easier to just put a bucket by the garage door[INSIDE] and every time you walk by drop your change into it.  I did that for about 3 years and was able to pay for dipping the TR3 (and then some).  I am guessing I have about another $1000 in there right now.  Won't cover the paint job but it will put a dent into it.

Great!  I now feel vindicated for hanging on to that old parking meter from
Abilene, Texas that I bought for $5.00, 30+ years ago.  

Someday I'm going to get a post for it and figure out what it would cost to
feed it everyday to keep the Triumph parked.

It's the business end of an old parking meter.  Doesn't everyone have some
totally useless item on the workbench?
