Thank you to all who replied.  I guess I'd better not bog down the List wit=
h this, just will add it's not a statistical manure pile.  You can read a d=
escripion on Amazon, where the publisher has posted the advance copy (expec=
t a few typos until they finish edits).  Honestly, restoring and driving th=
e TR3 these past 15 years has been what kept me sane, thanks in no small pa=
rt due to you all.
