tr6tuga Posted March 18, 2018 Report Share Posted March 18, 2018 Just noticed that my 1971 tr6 hood frame is missing on both sides some kind of ruber bumper as can be seen on Moss catalogue part 65, I guess is function is to set the frames when the hood is folded. Is it wright or I missing something ? Any clues, measures for making my self one? Thank you Quote Link to post Share on other sites

graeme Posted March 18, 2018 Report Share Posted March 18, 2018 I think you can use bonnet buffer item 35, part # 601663 https://www.moss-europe.co.uk/shop-by-model/triumph/tr5-6/body-chassis/bonnet-fittings/front-body-fittings-tr5-tr250.html Cheers Graeme Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Graeme Cole Posted March 24, 2018 Report Share Posted March 24, 2018 Excuse my ignorance but what does this piece do? I’ll have to check I have one. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
stuart Posted March 24, 2018 Report Share Posted March 24, 2018 Excuse my ignorance but what does this piece do? I’ll have to check I have one. When the hood frame is folded the rubber is to stop it chafing on the wheelarch covering. Stuart. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Charlie D Posted March 25, 2018 Report Share Posted March 25, 2018 Hello, If the screw in the picture is no longer available as a TR part, take a look at a "Chicago book screw". I think that is the generic name for it. You can find them on eBay and other places. Charlie. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
