Not sure if this link will work and probably best viewed with the sound off!

That was my only TR3 ride today. Thanks.
The sound is good. I was a little worried that someone was about to fall out while looking at the road... 6 passengers including me, excluding waldo.
 
Haha. Worked fine!

I remember as a college student getting pulled over by the police with four adults and three large pizzas on board my TR3.
We got away with it and didn't have to give up a pizzas. :jester:

Your car is left-hand drive?
 
I think Nick's car is a California transplant. That's why it's LHD. I also liked the audio. It's definitely adds to the playfulness of driving on the wrong side of the road!!! :driving: :laugh:
 
Outstanding! Cute kids too, looked like they were having fun.
 
Looked like great fun. Nick I'm still waiting for 30 degrees of cold and rain.
 
Keith,
I collected some rain for you this morning - we had quite a bit, so can spare you some. It is about 50 degrees today. Is that any good for you?!!
My TR lived its first 15 years in Memphis and then another 15 years in Oklahoma. I bought it from a dealer in Texas and it is surprisingly rust-free considering that it lived outside while in Memphis. I am quite happy with it being left hand drive and I don't think I would change it.
 
Thanks Nick, I'm looking forward to changing the weather forcast for this weekend from dry and 111 to damp and low 60s. The TR3 that I'm restoring was dispatched to France and then made it to Arizona the next year.
 
And OF COURSE everyone was wearing seatbelts, right? Right? :smile:
 
You had me scared. I had just watched the video ad (shot in Holland, I believe) of the high school girls texting while driving an automobile and causing a horrible fatal accident. Then, here is a Triumph, loaded down with little kids, without seat belts. Really made me uncomfortable until it was over.

Nice engine sound.
 
I remember growing up in the 60's with the whole family of 5 in my parents 57 Corvette. My sister and I on the center console between my parents and my younger brother in my mom's lap.

I had four point harnesses in the back of my TR3A for the kids. They (the harnesses not the kids) are now sitting in a box since the kids are adult (size) now. It was great to take the family all out in the TR3 though. The only time it was not was when we all had ice cream. The high back seats (even with short kids) makes for fast melting ice cream and I had a major clean up to do the next day. All worth the fun though.
