In 2010 my '57 TR3A got hit.

I took it to the body shop that had done it's paint job, they sat on it for
6 months and did nothing.

I took it to another body shop which takes a year and a half to fix the
body.  When I get it back the engine is starting to die so I can't drive it
much, but it doesn't matter because a few miles later and someone whips a
U-turn right into my car.

I take it to Greg Solow's Engine Room to bring the poor thing back to life.
Three years later and the body work is done and the engine and steering are
rebuilt.

I had forgotten what it was like to drive the TR3A, which means that when I
finally got it back I got to fall in love all over again.

If you're in SF, you'll probably see me driving around, with the top down.
