First car was a '66 VW Beetle that cost me $500 in 1975. I had to hold it in 2nd gear but it ran OK. One other VW between that and my first LBC, a '71 MGB. I made the mistake of racing my friend in his [5-speed] Fiat 124 Spyder so I learned how to replace an engine that summer. After the MG, I bought the first of my three GT6's. The second one came shortly thereafter. It was originally a parts car but it turned out to be in better shape than the first one so their roles were reversed. I sold them both in 1979 when I moved to Texas. I was Triumphless for 21 years until I bought the '73 GT6 last spring.
