Subject: | Re: grumman wing |
So I'm starting to think of the Grumman like my Triumph TR250 roadster.
There are only a couple of companies making parts and there are only a
couple of shops I would let touch it. But as long as there are those
companies and shops, I'm fairly comfortable about keeping it going. And, i
t
sure beats the heck out of an MG.
Regards,
TonyD
