Carl,

Heres my up-dated list, I saw your post a few days ago, - wasn't cognizant
that you were looking for my old list. As you can see after nearly (2)
Years I'm approx 50% complete on my '57 TR3A. (life keeps getting in the
way of quality garage/shop time). I am approaching a phase of my project
where I anticipant great gains over the next few months. If you were
looking for my old list, I thought you may appreciate an update, may be of
some value towards your current project. 

cheers
