Get Fuzzy by Darby Conley for July 04, 2024

Formerly titled, “Don’t do this”.

Probably in the comic section

Aw, the infamous British sport cars of old!

Afflicted?

TR4s were worse. I had several and made good money tuning and balancing the SU carbs.

I had a 1978 triumph spitfire and had nothing but problems with the electrical system — great car except for that.

So, Bucky is a published author?

You know why the Brits drink their beer warm? They have Lucas refrigerators.

Well, they have to fill the mag with something.

Jags weren’t much better. Spent a lot of time wrenching on them in my youth with my dad!

Look, I’ll stick up for Bucky a little bit. He IS an idea man…er cat. In fact, I think Rob steals some of his ideas for his advertising job. But his problem is execution…or in many cases, electrocution.

Those review quotes which Rob cites could be seen as praise and/or affirmation in some such circles.

Surely even in 2012, that was an obscure reference. According to Wikipedia, the TR7 hasn’t been manufactured since 1981.

Ah Lucas Electrics…The Prince of Darkness

To set the record straight, it’s not Lucas Electric, but Lucas Industries. See:
