[TR] My TR3s 65 and our 39th

[TeriAnn J. Wakeman]

I had forgotten, June. June was the month I purchased my Triumph TR3A. 
June of 1986, now 39 years ago. It doesn't seem all that long ago. Even 
today every time I rest my eyes on her I fall in love again. She's far 
from perfect being a daily driver with 34 year old paint, but at a well 
used 65 years of age, who is perfect? She attends the local car club 
show & shine gatherings, often as the only British car amongst American 
muscle cars. We don't have coffee clutches in the Pacific northwest 
coastal redwood forest country.  Just as well as I don't drink coffee. 
She'll never win local judging but I think she still looks lovely. Even 
with the wear & tare of decades of daily driving and weather she makes a 
lovely 20 foot car.

As I gaze out the the front door I fall in love again as we drive into 
our 40th year together.
