hey guys,
I just wanted to let you know that there is in fact a younger
generation of enthusiasts out there. I myself am 25 and have owned a
TR-7, and have fixed up a $200 '78 spitfire. My new project is a
1980 Spit that has had some fire damage. The younger generation
really is out there........and they like british cars
