Hey Guys and Gals,
Bill Lynn VTR Membership Secretary, has sent Beverly and I a bunch of  
Triumph Memorabilia to organize for him. Did you know?
 
Some time after 1961, 
"In a deal with Hertz, TR4As became part of their rental fleet and the  Hertz 
Sports Car Club which offered membership to renters who took their brief  
course on how to drive a sports car before renting a Corvette, Mustang GT or  
Triumph.  The 18-city deal worked out okay for automatic two-seaters but  
created 
a big problem for Triumph's warranty department in the gearbox  area.   Not 
too many Hertz customers were familiar with four  speeds."   written by Mike 
Cook, British Car Magazine, December 1992.  ( Mike is the current VTR TVT 
Editor)
 
Bill has a bunch of really good stuff here.  I will report as I can. 
Cheers,
Darrell
