>This all came about as a result of a visit made by Dave and Linda
Massey in 1999 (with three seven car Leyland Hippo transporters trying
to look anonymous closely following their hire car) as they went
through the pay booth. Thanks for the photo with your Christmas Card,
Dave - we now know where the UK spec TR8 went. The fact it made a
troublefree journey last year to Oregon is surely testament to the
earlier maintenance programme it underwent in our workshops. We all
secretly agree that your conversion of the car to LH steer looks
fairly good for a quick fix.

Rats! I thought I pulled it off. I thought flipping the photo to look
like a left hand drive car would have put you off the trail. (Thanks to
Joe Curry for the reverse printed decals. ;-) )
Remember that driving from St. Louis to Oregon is rather like driving from
Gaydon to Sweden. Five times. Without the water.
Dave
