Well I'd like to jump in here and tell my tale of woe.
I got my first TR - a '65 TR4A with solid rear axle in 1970 at the age of
18. On the ride home the generator melted the solder but I still loved
the car. Second year of college I decided I needed something more
dependable and got a big block Camaro. Kept it for 9 months, and sold it
to get a '71 TR6. That was in '72. I've had a TR ever since, though not
always a running one.
I let the 15 yoa drive the 250 once....he doesn't like a stick I'm
ashamed to say, but I'm working on him. The 14 yoa can't wait to get his
chnace at it.
I did almost sell the 250 once....to get a boat! I realized before it
was too late that the boat would be nice, but the 250 was better.
Never thought about letting it go since.
