I give up. What's a 52 Somerset ? Is that a Buick ?
For that matter, where are you (or more importantly your cars) ?
Of course, I'm probably the wrong person to sell them to, if you want to
see them finished in this lifetime. I've been working on my TR3A since I
bought it some 15 years ago, and I can't honestly say it's progressed much.
Since I like driving it as much or more than I like working on it, I tend
to work on it only when I can't drive it. And when I can't drive it, I
tend to focus on making it driveable. But, I _can_ say I would now drive
it anywhere, and expect to fix anything that did go wrong <g>
And, there's two more TR3's waiting for me to retire <g>
Oh well.
Cheers
Randall
