I happened to watch The Love Bug tonight with my 3 year old, you know the
Herbie movie, this has to be one of the coolest car movies, a few TR4s show
up along with all kinds of other Healeys, Jags, Sunbeams. Munsters Go home
was the first movie the Munsters made, Herman inherits a house and becomes a
lord and goes to england where he gets involved in road racing against all
kinds of neat british cars, he used that coffin car, Dragula (bit of Munster
trivia).

Subject: TR sighting on TVLand....
I was watching TV this weekend. The cable channel "TVLand" was running a
"Munsters"*
marathon. I had just started watching when in the episode "Family Portrait"
(the Munster family is chosen by a computer as the "typical" American
family),
the reporter and photographer drive up to the Munster's house in what
appeared
to be a TR4.

* For those of you not from North America, "The Munsters" was a situation
comedy
from the early 60's in hich a family consisting of monsters and vampires
lived
and worked seemingly unaware that they were different from anyone else.
