[TR] TR- trf summer party

[Carl TR]

Sounds like the next generation has been 'hooked'.  Great story.

For my part - I have been working on my TR since around the beginning of the 
Millennium.  My grandson was born in February of that year.    He has only 
seen pictures of the car (as it should be and it all apart) - lives too far 
away to see me working on it - not sure if he has ever been to a meet.

But if you ask him....   "That's my car when I get older" and to be honest - 
he is probably right - unless his mother gets over her Fiat affliction....
