Looks to be a year or two before I was “hatched”. 😜

Well Dan. I'm not too familiar with dating of European Cars although I probably was living over there about that time but did not GAF. Now the U'S made vehicles in the 1965-80 time period is more my interest. What year was that car built?

Looks like my 1958 TR3 that I drove in college. at UT. Mine was red, my brothers was white, and my best friend had blue, and another friend had a black one. I was once chased by the campus cops on the inner campus drive and eluded pursuit, but naturally, he did ID my license plate. I had to pay that dang ticket before I could graduate! And I had a red headed girl friend who was more trouble than the TR3..
Good Times!

I suspect is came from the earlier part of that time envelope. I was in elementary school in that time frame. FWIW, I was out with the family for brunch today and found this in the parking lot. Bunch of ol' farts in the region that play with stuff aside from guns.

I think it was the TR-3 designed to have flip up lights but they were cancelled due to cost issues (aka lucas electrics)

My first car was a red '64 Triumph Spitfire. Girlfriend's mom would not allow her to ride in that "death trap". I was a 6'2" teenager, and I didn't so much ride in the car as wear it!
