Yeah, the sun in the northeast has been like the settings on a Lucas
light switch, dim, flicker and off.

 I've got a TR3 that's ready to go anywhere I want, but the weather
always seems to be poor. I've also got a TR6 I'm working on for my son,
but it's outdoors, and I'm not going to go crawling around underneath a
car on the wet ground to weld in floors.

On the other hand, the Stag is in the garage, and quite a bit of work is
getting done on that. I can see the possibility of having it done
sometime this fall. At the very least, I'll be able to move it out and
move the TR6 in for some work.
