Sometimes it is worth it. I sold my Norton so I could stay on the beach
a few months longer and be with my daughter. getting to be a dad just a
few months more was worth every whitworth threaded unobtanium fastener.


It was metallic silver -


So was my step dads.

black soft top, detachable hard top.
It took us through Europe as far as Yugoslavia on a
grand-touring/camping trip. Those were the days!


Oh man.............. ! Cruising the continent in a Jag with the
prerequisit babe. I dont think many guys can say that. I sure can't.

Good on mate!

hehe....oh, did I mention, it had chrome knock-off wire wheels?

And here I am, a considerable part of a century later, with the same
woman, but no E-type.
I do have a horse, power boat, two sailboats, a canoe,and a kayak
though, come to think of it.... Ha!

Brian Whatcott Altus OK
