Art,

It has been that way for about a month. Is it the time of the year?

I can't remember if it was this way last winter. There was a bunch of 
TR3 projects on Ebay during Nov and Dec. Some looked like great 
candidates for restoration.

BTW, I am traveling to Ohio to pick up a TR4 I just acquired on Ebay. 
Long term retirement restoration project. Retirement to start in 6.5 
years. So I have that time to take it all apart!

I have also always wanted to get an Europa but it looks like my LBCs 
will always be Triumphs for the forseeable future. Up here in Central NY 
I have seen an Europa traveling from Rome to Utica a few times this past 
summer and fall. They still have the looks!
