Just a heads-up for those of you who might be interested. Following
the heart attack which Fisher suffered at the end of June, his general
condition has worsened. Doug Doidge, a long-time friend of Fisher's,
and a CVAR racer, has very kindly offered to help me to divest myself
of the balance of the 'collection' of Fisher's auto parts etc. I am
almost entirely absorbed in caring for Fisher, but Doug has offered to
make himself available, and another friend may also be here. Doug has
posted the following message on the CVAR mailing list:-
GARAGE/YARD/RUMMAGE SALE OF IMPORT CARS AND PARTS
August 16-17, near Comfort, Texas, 8AM to 5PM. Sprite,
Midget, MGB, Triumph, Jaguar, BMW, etc. Bodies, engines,
transmissions, rear-ends, etc. Bring your trucks, trailers, tools
(we have no loaners), and some help for loading. Everything
goes at 10 cents per lb. - if you don't buy it, the recycler will!
Contact me for directions to the location.

I have not had any time to care for the property, so the grass is
tall, and the weeds are taller. It will be hot, dirty, thirsty work.
I would really like to get rid of everything, so then at least I may
be able to get someone in to tidy the place up a bit, and have
somewhere to house the cars that I want to keep. Please be aware that
most of these items have been here for some time, some under cover,
some not - none of the body parts have been undercover, for instance.
The pole barn is piled high with an assortment of pieces, to include
various blocks in indeterminate condition. There are used
transmissions galore, again, condition unknown. If any of it might be
of use to you, you might consider coming to have a look.
