Hey, Guys,

It looks like I am not going to make the April 1st deadline with my car. But I am doubling my efforts to get the car done for Regionals.

I will be putting all my efforts into the car for the next three weeks. I am going to take a break from anything else. Please keep the photos coming so I will have something to do when I have my physical break down.

Thanks for your support!

Clay

The car belongs to a guy in Barrhaven. It is original and has very low miles, although has not been kept very well. It was for sale at the old Mini-man back in about 1993-4. I was bidding on it but it went higher than I wanted. It had paint damage from being stored for years in an underground garage, the water from the ceiling dripped on the hood and front turret one one side. I think the guy is a member of the local club. I can probably dig the name out if you want to track it down.

It's OK Paul I was just currious. Don't think I have seen that one around before. I know there is a 7 somewhere in Oreleans that is the same colour also. Have seen it on 174 a few times between Orleans Blvd and the 174/417 split. Are you going to the club karting night on tuesday? should be fun, at least it was last year.

ok, so I'll answer the only part Paul didn't .......

Yes.


(see what happens when you don't go to a show Mark [;)], not only did you miss the TR8, but you also missed the torrential rain [B)])

Ah yes so true Ron. Missed the rain and also the show. Planning on attending more shows this year. I will be leading a few cars from the Ottawa Valey Triumph Club through some back country roads to go to Hudson on May 30th. hope to see you there.
