FOT...

I have the name of a Dove owner with one for sale in Australia. Complete car 
with extensive factory documentation. No cracks, new sheetmetal. About 
$14,000 U.S. as I recall...maybe 12,000 plus shipping.

Also have two Harrington Alpines in the storage yard I store my race trailer 
in just sitting out and deteriorating last three years. Interesting lines. 
Could round up an owner if anyone was seriously interested. Alpines need 
TOTAl restoration.

ALSO.... took some great pictures tonight of a supercharged TR6 at the local 
stereo install shop. The entire rear deck was speaker (Subwoofer) designed to 
take out every spot weld in the car.

BUT...it also had some very nicely done mods to compliment the custom paint, 
recaro type seats, rims, supercharger, white face gages, blue metal dash, 
dash top instrument cluster bubble, grey top/blue car (deep blue metallic)/ 
grey interion. (Stock panels made in grey vinyl).Car is a 1972 September 
build date.

Nerfed rear bumpers and center square exhaust with license "Full Monty".

Not my cup of tea but one very nicely done bit of custom work. Loads of 
detail and done right.

I'll have pictures developed tomorrow if anyone wants to see the cable 
accelerator, supercharger and SU installation (Single belt with a ford type 
belt tensioner on pump, crank. alt, and supercharger). Again nice 
installation.

Just thought I'd mention it . Could not wait around for the owner but left 
him an SCTOA/VTR flier so hope to hear from him. Probably trying to call me 
right now. Car was going to some show in North Carolina. Anyone have clues on 
this oddity?

Later.
