In a school without women...... In a time before fat. Madras required.
Where are the Cigarettes? '63 is the earliest year I can remember. Everywhere people were "alive with pleasure". My Dad and his friends all dressed like that. I was dressed like that last Sunday out at the folks'. The first thing my sister said was "Animal House."
Very remote in those days. i knew a guy who graduated in 1940. He joinen the British army after graduation then the US army in 1942. He must have only come home for Christmas and summer, living in NE Iowa like he did.
I think you got it. Looks like the TC only came in R hand drive although years later collectors converted some. It would seem in '62 that a TD was a lot more common than a TC and doubtful anyone would go to the expense of changing the steering.
The TD was the first car I fell in love with. I was 8 when I sent off for pics of one for sale.
Without getting into personal preference... photos like this really show that the whole no-socks-with-shorts thing is completely and utterly 100% revisionist bs.
To hell with Take Ivy's Harvard. Dartmouth looks a lot more fun.

Tip of the hat to the current NCAA 7s rugby champs Dartmouth. Better yet, hats off to their traddy simple logo of a block "D" on the chest.

Joe- That's a TR-3 but I can't tell if the MG is a TC, a TD or a TF. Anyone?

British Car Day at Larz Anderson next weekend for folks in the Boston area. Lottsa MGs at last year's.
ReplyDeleteBrohammas,
ReplyDeleteGood call! They played great. Very well drilled. It helped that they put one of Dartmouth's wide receivers out on the wing.
Their 'D' jerseys were awesome. -I think rugby's getting a little carried away with the futuristic skintight, Underarmour look....
-Bring back the cotton 'Maxmores'!
Glory Days!
ReplyDeleteSplendid shot of the kids watching a Lacrosse Game...
