Just had to share. These were taken when I was maybe 2-3 years old in France my dad was stationed there. He is the one with the aviator glass on and the ridiculous helmet!
The red TR is my dads the blue in the shop is my moms. Story goes it was in the shop because in a club rally she went into a river and swamped the motor.

Well were my love of cars came from is obvious I just hope not my since of style! :cooler: I think its funny how the pilots glasses and jacket were at home behind the windscreen of a B58 or a TR2.We have always had sports cars around mom dad were always involved in racing /rally when we were in Europe. Mom stopped when my sister was born. Which was a shame as she was quick between the ears and fast as heck. I can remember standing on the seat of her car hanging on to the windshield blasting thru the streets of Chateauroux /Verzion FR.
Dad sold the TRs shortly before we came back to the states and bought and Alfa and a Jag to ship back home the Jag was around until I was just about to start driving. Imagine that something about unaccounted mileage and bugs on the windscreen. Mom dad thanks for passing on the LBC BUG.
