- I used to use a "crook lock" that I brought back from the UK. It is similar to the "Bar" or whatever it is called. It is a steel bar with a crook or cane on each end with a lock in the middle. It goe

- That would be THE CLUB. I remember the CROOK LOCK. It shares the same disadvantage as THE CLUB. They are both made of super-hard steel, but your steering wheel rim is not. A quick snip and little ben

- Sometimes novelty is the best approach. In 1965 a friend of mine bought an E-Type in Germany. A few months later he moved back to the US and brought the E-Type with him. He had only been living here

- I'm with Scott; when I bought Sarah (my TR-4A) I just decided not to leave anything valuable in the car and never lock it. This has carried over, to a certain extent, into my other cars which are loc

- I went out to a goodbye lunch once where many Stouts were consumed. I gave a co-worker who had consumed his fair share a ride back with the top down. We parked and he asked me "how do you lock this d

- One method of "locking" my TR6 is to use a pooch. You'll need a watch dog type of a dog (typically a German Shepard etc). Get a leash that is a few feet long and fasten it to the roll bar or any secu
