I used to have a friend who had a TR3 (second pic). Beautiful cars. They actually handled quite well for what they were as long as you replaced the scissors type shocks with "real" ones. Always loved the Esprits, too.
Dale--Email these pics to WT III. He'll enjoy them, too.
I had 2 TR3's a few years back, I thought they were so cool, You could pick up a dime off the street and wouldn't even have to bend down. Then you could take that same dime and fill up the gas tank.
OH the days gone by

Yea I wish for the old days again like when I picked up a 67 GTO with 60,000 miles for $300 or the 70 AAR Cuda I got for a 70 Toyota and $200, or the 71 Challenger R/T I traded the GTO for, or the 67 Mustang coupe with the 390ci. A/C, P/S tilt away steering I passed up because the wanted way too much money ($275). Or when I went into the full service gas station with my 67 Impala 2 door and the guy was shocked because he had never ben able to put $11 in gas in a car befor. But then again when I had those cars it was just after I got my big raise to $2.75/hr. If you figure it out, with todays dollars, my 86 Fiero G/T cost me less than those cars.
