I'd proudly proclaim "Yep! 47 HP at the flywheel - if it's a good

It's somewhere between a 'beater' and a 'work in progress' but it will never
be a show car...
There was one VERY small car show, that Martha and I drove the 65 and
the 68 to. We were off to the side, and I see a Father and his son
(around 13 or 14) eyeing the 68. The son stands next to the car, and
has him elbow "almost" touching the top of the windscreen, like he is
leaning on it.
I jump up and said "what are you doing over there!!". The father and
son look flustered, and said something along the lines like, we just
wanted a photo near your car. I told them, you can't take his photo
near the car. I promptly opened the door, and said, he's gotta be IN
the car. Man, the smile on that kid's face, almost broke his head in
two. Got him behind the wheel, propped his hands and arm like he was
cruising, and dad got some good photos. I hope one day he gets an
LBC.....

p.s. I just hope it isn't a Triumph.....
