No. Sticking with enclosed.

uncle jack has not been in the trailer since the weekend we picked it up at Joe's. It's been to Canada and to Fargo on the hoof, but we will trailer to Colorado.

Ha! I bought our TR4 in San Antonio and sold it ten years later after getting the Stag. To a guy who lives 14 miles away from the old TR4 owner in San Antonio. And he bought the 1962 Texas license plates that I had sold to Brad Kahler, so now the car is back in San Antonio with the same license plates.

Maybe they will see each other at a Texas Triumph event.

I took this Stag to VTR 2011 in Breckenridge Colorado last August.
It won 2nd place in Concours and a Silver Certificate with 338 points out of 400! Chuck Kittelson would have been proud!

I suppose the judges were a bit hard on me since I have judged each of their cars in the past - paybacks are a bugger!

Cheers!
