50 years ago when I was a lot dumber and a whole lot braver, I drove my tr3 from Morgantown, wv to New Martinsville, WV across a hilly twisty turnny WV road, while snowing. This is still one of my most favored memorable trips in my still drivable beast. Today I'm afraid to take her out if it even looks like it might rain in the next 24 hours.  I know the TR has not changed that much, So what the hell has happened to me?
Happy New Year.
RL Jones
PS Maybe this is the year her and I go on a trip longer than 10 miles.

 53 years ago I was driving a Bug Eyed Sprite, MG Midget, or a TR3 as my daily driver. Lots of fun, but? the roads were not as crowded then and the cars were disposable, older models. Now I don't out of respect for the car. After digging all of the rust possible out of the old TR3 I don't want to introduce any more salt or even moisture than avoidable.?Do miss slip sliding away though.

Tom and others,

I've owned my 4A for 56 years this coming June. It was my only car for the first 2 years (69 and 70) and driven in the weather regardless of how bad it was. I have no idea how it was driven from new in 1966 but based on its condition when I bought it, I doubt it was driven in bad weather. Once put away the rust battle began culminating in a replacement frame in 1989 and finally a body tub from TX in 2008 and good fenders. The only original body panels are the "bonnet and maybe the RF Fender. It does get driven in the rain only if unavoidable but otherwise stays dry. A labor of love and at almost 79 I still enjoy driving it. I hope to continue driving it as we transition to the mountains of Western NC this summer sometime.

As Don says in the Newsletter. "Get busy living"

JVV

51 years ago I worked as a mill hunky in Homestead Works. The perfect
commute car for that was my Bugeye. Drove great in the snow, as long as it
wasn?t too deep, great gas mileage. Ended up selling that car  to Ed Woods
20 years later!

When I was 15, my dad bought a 67 AH 3000 at Westmoreland Auto.  My brother had bought a 67 Sprite to commute to Pittsburgh.   They were everyday drivers and I took my drivers test in that BJ8.  I remember it was real tail happy and not much of a drive in the snow car but it was anyway because it was my dad's transportation.  In 69 I talked him into trading it on a Roadrunner.   It wasn't much better in the snow.  He found out I was drag racing it and that was the end of that ! LOL!!  It got traded for a Ford LTD. Ugh.   Who could possibly know what these cars would be worth today ?  Back then they were just a used car after they left the lot.  I remember that Plymouth dealers didn't even want that Healey on trade.  Monroeville Chrysler Plymouth had us take it across the street to A&L.  Phone call was exchanged and they gave $1500 on trade.

Guess it's time for my two cents worth, I bought my '58 TR3A in 1972. I was flipping cars for extra cash on the side and just finished a '63 Chevy Nova convertible. Mechanically sound and I had a $59.95 Earl Sheib paint job done. For some reason, probably the enjoyment of driving the TR3 I kept it. So 52 years later it is still going. Early on I drove it to work most days but kept it out of the snow. I didn't have side curtains that first winter so below 45 I didn't take it. Replaced the frame in 1984 and had a lot of metal work done. One of the best cars on the open road ever.

Nothing as exciting as what you folks have related. We purchased our 1977
Spitfire at A&L motors and drove it home in a snowstorm on the turnpike.
>From that point on we drove it up and down the Jersey coast, vacationing
and visiting friends.  I used as a commuter in Pittsburgh, in Bloomington,
IN, and Louisville, KY, as well as West Virginia. I began a rolling
restoration in the late 1980s. On one trip to Cape May, on the turnpike,
the top was down and we overtook a semi hailing pigs. The smell was
horrible, so I passed him. When he saw Marianne retching, he laughed and
kept pace with us for his entertainment. I sped up and he sped up. Before I
knew, the speedo was approaching 90 mph. I promptly slowed down and let him
get far ahead of us. Cheers!

 I may as well jump into this as well.? A couple of short adventures from the late 70s:
*My first Spitfire stuck in the snow.? Tires spinning and not going anywhere.? I have an idea!? I pull the choke out enough to get the RPMs up to around 1500.? Put it in first and let the rear wheels spin.? Jump out and push from behind until the car starts to move.? Chase it down, jump in and away I go.
*Doing donuts in my TR4A in Greengate Mall parking lot.? Slam into one of the concrete parking stops with left front wheel.? Appear to have bent the wheel.? It wobbles pretty bad.? A few days later, driving down the road the wheel falls off, left front hits the pavement, rusty body tub splits where front left floor pan meets rockers panels.? Ken finds car many years later in a broken down garage in Greensburg.? No, it wasn't worth restoring.
*Hopped up the Spitfire with performance goodies.? Driving down four lane Rt 119 towards My Pleasant and decide to open it up to see what it will do.? Almost hit 100 per the speedo which may or may not have been accurate.? Starts making noise.? Look in rearview mirror and much smoke coming out of the back of the car.? The result was the first Spitfire engine rebuild I completed.
I could go on and on but I don't want to bore everyone...

   Way back in 1959, 2 thieves broke into Amon Olds, a dealer on Ohio River Blvd. They attempted to use the oxy-acetylene rig on hand to break into the safe. Instead, they set the place on fire. The fire was extinguished by the local fire department, but not before causing extensive smoke damage to two cars in the shop, a ?56 Oldsmobile and a ?57 Triumph TR3. Both were totaled and acquired by Fireman?s Fund American, an insurance company for which my dad worked. After the repaint by a shop on Spring Garden Avenue, Dad purchased the car for $1800 and sold the family?s ?56 Buick for $800. He was a tough negotiator when it came to car deals. That was ?my? first Triumph, the car I drove year-round till its demise in 1965. Without those two incompetent knuckleheads who lit up Amon Olds, I might have continued to drive my then current ride, a ?51 Ford, or bought an MG, and never have met Ed Major and started what?s become The Western Pennsylvania Triumph Association. In a way, that dynamic duo caused all the good times and good friends that have happened in the 66 years since. ??   ?   Ed Woods

Larry - Thank you for returning the agreement. Below is a link for booking rooms online for your group.

You must share the entire link for it to work. You need to instruct your group members to copy the entire link into their search bar and hit enter and the page dedicated to your group will come up. They can than enter the days they wish to attend and reserve it with their credit card.

Please let me know if there are any issues. Of course they can call into the hotel to make their reservations if that works better.

***Unfortunately we cannot do a rooming list like last year as we must have a credit card on file to reserve the rooms***

WPTA membership and others, I'm forwarding you an email from fellow racer
Henry Frye regarding the passing of John Hasty, another fine TR vintage
racer.  Some of you folks may remember over the years watching John Hasty
vintage racing his yellow TR3A up until last year.  Personally, John gave
me lots of tips and build guidance when I started out vintage racing in
2013 with my TR3B.   He always had a fast car and could show it on the
track.  We had a couple fender benders and close calls but maintained a
good friendship.

I just found out that a couple months back we lost our resident
octogenarian, John Hasty. Those of us who race the eastern part of the
States have probably met him at the track, piloting a yellow TR3. John
was always great fun to chat with, his extensive background in
motorcycle racing usually came up in some way or another. After "aging
out" on two wheels he decided it would be a better idea to race on four
wheels and was still on track with us last year at the age of 88 years
young! At the spring race at VIR I see he was still right in the mix,
finishing 12th out of 29 runners in the Saturday race.

Trying to remember when John arrived in the scene, I searched my
archives. In 2011, Don Marshall nominated John and forwarded this
introduction to the FOT.

"I've been into racing most anything that has a motor and wheels since
the 40's when in high school building hot rods. Took off a few years
while in college, but beginning in 1959 bought my first sports car, an
Austin Healy 3000 w/o a jump seat, next a MGB, then a Porsche 912, then
a Merc 280SL, now an Alfa Spider for the street and my TR3A for the
track. Crewed for a friend in the 60's with a bug-eye sprite in SCCA
events then got into motorcycles. I road motorcycle road-racers for
about 10 years and when I retired from riding, built and tuned 250cc GP
road-racers with a rider on the AMA pro circuit for about 7 years. We
did pretty well, never finished worse than 5th. in overall standings and
won the national
championship in 1990. My good friend Ceasar Cone got me back into sports
car racing and when it came time to buy a car I decided that if I was
going vintage racing I wanted a truly vintage car and I think the TR3A
is a perfect truly vintage car."

Our kind of people, no doubt. You will be missed, my friend...

Message-ID: <CAJAvQrc1kPT4wOpesgu7nO0T_vwHxFiqzuHuhmsbLvGF_efiBw@mail.gmail.com>

Greetings:

I am building interiors for a TR2 and a later TR3 and am in need of some
old door cards and quarter panels to use as templates for the new panels I
am making. The TR2 door card has a rectangular hole and the later TR3 has a
kidney shaped hole. I can also use any old door pockets that are
salvageable. If you may have anything available, please let me know.

Thanks
Vic P.

He doesn't have any of this stuff. Six months ago I pitched all my old
ones.

Good morning!

I have received the following membership renewals over the past week:


  *   Don Jennings
  *   Jack Shilling
  *   Don Baloh
  *   Tom Shannon

Just a quick reminder that all memberships need to be paid by March 1st.

Finally, it looks like we will have a record crowd at the annual Holiday Party.

Make sure that you take the time to thank:


  *   Tim Kunz
  *   Tim Prell

It takes a ton of work to host this event.
