[TR] Mom in my TR3

[P Caffrey]

Yes, mine did too....In 1977 my mother and sister drove me to the foothills of
Sacramento to pick up my newly purchased TR4A. It only took a few days of
having the car that mom wanted to drive it. She did, and drove it well....When
she got older and couldn't drive anymore, she loved to ride in it.

Not sure if many of you have had your mother take off in your newly acquired
Triumph, but mine did.  Mom had a practice of 'test driving' every four
wheeled heap I drug home as a teen, I think she secretly was taking it up to
the service station (you remember service stations don't you?) to have the
local guy check it over.  I never complained as it always came back with a
full tank of gas.

Later she even co-signed a $300 note at the bank so I could get the
overdrive fixed before I headed off to a new job 100 miles away.

Happy Mother's Day to all the TR loving moms out there!
