Hi,

Yeah got one of Glens strut braces, [8D] and a great piece of engineering it is.

I spoke to Glen a month or so ago and said he was parting with the TR, who got her has brought it got a great car at a very reasonable price, you couldn't build one as good for that price. Glen has an amazing collection of classic Japanese bikes so hopefully may still bump into him at classic shows as a top gent.

Cheers John

I recommended Glenns car to a member a few days ago who wanted a nice TR7V8, I wonder if he bought it.

Hi,

Heard from Glen on Friday, apparently gent from France turned up and despite being sent loads of pictures, decided wasn't the car for him [:0] does make you wonder some days ! If you were to build one yourself it would cost you as much with all the work done on this car, so at a guess back up for sale, drop Glen a email or me for that mater if interested and will put you in touch

Cheers John
