I was off work today and had scheduled the glass guy to install my new
windshield. It's been sitting in the garage for about a year now. After the guy
left, I sat there looking at the car and realized that my 15 year "hobby" was
done, finished, nothing to do by drive it.. ready.<br>It was 74 degrees and
sunny so off I went on a nice drive.<span> </span><br>There I was following the Ohio
river listening to Steely Dan's "Time<span style="DISPLAY:inline"><span> </span>out of
Mind" in the new headrest speakers smiling....<span> </span><br>As I passed a truck the hood emblem
suddenly flew over my head and landed in the road behind me. Crap!!!<br>I pulled
over and ran back down the side of the road. Could that shiny object in the road
be my emblem??<span> </span><br>Why yes it
can!!!<span> </span><br>I was 10 feet from it
when a minivan drove over it and it exploded into a million pieces.<br>When I
got home, I called my favorite Triumph mail order house and talked to Scott..
That's right we are on a first name basis. Anyway he is sending me a new emblem
and I should have it late next week. I told Scott that I had just finished the
restoration and he laughed and told me,"Dave, you will never be done, You will
never find all the oil leaks".</span></p>
