Went to a newer Cars-n-Coffee in Lisboa. A wide assortment of cars: old Datsuns, Wolseley, many Minis, R5's...
But I was startled to see a bone stock 1979 TA: loaded 403 Y car. Paint is excellent.



Owner also has a 76 Dodge camper van and 86 Elky.

Took the ‘55 to our diner today. Wind had shifted and got smokey outside again.
I’m not saying that my ‘55 handles like a slot car, but definitely a noticeable difference putting the new sway bar bushings in. Clunk going around corners is obviously gone too. One nice thing is I had a low speed rattle up front that I could never track down. It sounded more like a loose bracket or guard. Well, that’s gone now too! Must have been the sway bar.
