I agree with all the nice things you folks have said about our suppliers, 
and I am truly amazed at how many parts I can get so easily for a 36 year 
old car (1960 TR3A).

But why in the heck doesn't somebody make an honest-to-goodness thermostat 
for my car?  You know, one with the little sleeve that covers the by-pass 
tube when the engine warms up.  Are the tooling costs prohibitive?  Isn't 
there a market?  Is it because concours judges never take a cooling system 
apart?

of a workout yet this year)
