<div>I would like to nominate Lyman Scherer for inclusion into the FOT. Lym=
an has restored an interesting TR3 racer. It started life as an offroad rac=
ing machine that was entered into the very first Mexican 1000 (1967), now c=

<div>
<div> =C2=A0</div>
</div>

<div>
<div>While camping between checkpoint locations, nature called and Alan hap=
pened upon the half buried, more than half gone TR3 that had been soaking u=
p the desert sun for so=C2=A0many=C2=A0years. Alan brought the desert hulk =
back to the US, where he sold it to a gentleman that sold it to Lyman. Lyma=
n rebuilt it with the help of a donor car and was able to enter it into the=
 50th anniversary Baja 1000 in 2017. He even contacted some of the names sc=

a good amount of history on the car.</div>

<div>
<div> =C2=A0</div>
</div>

<div>
<div>After the 50th anniversary Baja 1000 race, the car went on display at =
the Petersen Auto Museum in LA in their &quot;Extreme Conditions&quot; exhi=
bit, where it stayed until last year. Once back in Lyman&#39;s hands, he ha=
