[TR] Quaint video

[keithstewart at bell.net]

Thanks for the memory Dave. I remember both Fred and his TR3 well. When I went looking to post a picture of Fred’s car, I was surprised to see that it was 15 years ago that Fred departed our esteemed group. That summer, I hung a wreath on the Roadster Factory’s wall where Fred used to park his TR3 during Summer Party. I was honoured to be asked to give a eulogy remembering Fred during the awards ceremony on Saturday evening. Rest in peace old friend.

I don't get the Batman vibe but the XK120 influence is undeniable.  I remember Fred Thomas' TR3 complete with wheel spats.  Beautiful car.
