[Fot] How "NOT" to rebody a TR4A!

#23 is SAH 137 (UK registration stays with a vehicle for life), the only 
Triumph-chassis'd SLR race car.  SLR is Spritzel-Lawrencetune Racing.  
That's Chris Lawrence, the engine tuner -- who won his class in a 
TR-powered Morgan Plus 4 at LeMans in 1962.  Three SLRs were built on 
Morgan chassis and the fourth, this one, was built on a TR chassis.  
They're nice looking cars up close with aluminum bodywork.  The red one 
I saw in 2003 was probably 491 HYD and belonged to Bill Fink, the west 
coast Morgan dealer in San Francisco.  He used to race it on the west coast.
