Charlie, I also went out for some midwest sun today. With the top down and
the psgr side of the tonneau in place, it wasn't too cold. But windy!
Got subjected to another 'yeah my cousin used to restore those MG things'
story at lunch time. Funny how everyone either 'had one of those' or knew
someone that had one, but no one knows what it is when they see it. Ahh the
rites of spring.
enjoy!

Well springs finally arrived to St. Louis for a few hours (tomorrow cold
front moving in) so have been out in the TR today - suns out and it's in the
50's. Interior is finally to where I feel like it's done; replaced the
crash pad on the passenger side two weekends ago when I had the dash out,
and yesterday replaced the leather boot around the shifter both originals
were pretty cracked with age.
Great fun to see the teenage boys trying to read 'Triumph' on the rear
bumper and getting that 'never heard of a Triumph look' and another summer
of my neighbors asking how my 'MG' is doing......
