i was going to add that they ecoated my 7, there must be somewhere else speak to them whem they did mine the ecoating place was in oldbury by junction 2 m5 i picked it up from them and the ecoat finish was green, later that year i had some other stuff done and he told me that they had changed ecoaters he said they did a better job in truth proberbly a better deal and the finish was now black. but i agree the treatment is the business.

just over a week ago a customer of mine knowing my interest in triumphs asked me
if i'd be interested in a car he wanted out of his way it was his car he had someone
start to strip for resto 10 years ago they guy who was doing it moved to spain leaving
car as is know, engine he believes was rebuild everthings there engine trim
stored indoors, anyway he said i could have it for what scrapman would give him as he would
rather someone tackle it than scrap it. he even delivered it for free on tuesday price £150
i will do it so im on the lookout for tub body all panels will i think repair the missing rear quarter was taken off and is mint. chassis is good just small repair at rear. i have an excellent guy for that job.

yes i viewed it when previous owner had it for sale earlier this year that guy was in the army, and also had a mr2 355 on the go he didnt have enough time on his hands to complete i exchanged many messages with him regards doing a deal. in the end i recall he offered it to me for 2k but just couldn't justify it at the time. but i was so tempted just to buy and put on back burner for a few years. It looks so good i suspect the seats and interior would have cost 2k on their own, the dash as i recall although standard tr7 fair was hand stitched in beige / cream leather same as seats and door cards. good luck i am very jealous, it looks like you have many hours of fun in front of you. where are you based.

i went to look at this last year when it first sold as it was very local to me, it looks and sounds a lot more impressive than the advert suggests i was seriously tempted just for how unusual it looked and nothing to do with my passion for tr7.
there has been a serious amount of money already spent on this and and awful lot left to spend.

they are ford sierra strut top roller bearing i'll post part number tonight cost me i think £6 for pair broke the first i bought of the guy on ebay £24 when tightening up while spring compressors wound right up.
i also got a friend to machine the bell out so bearing sits in nice without adding any extra height so its effectivly so ame thickness as the washer you will be removing

i must be on the same plan as you again samco, i want my rebuilt engine and gearbox back in shell after being parted for 3 years !! treat for the car and myself target for this weekend, even better would be to get axle back from rebuilders so it could at least be back on wheels.
happy christmas to all out there in triumph land

what would you like! what year reg serial is the car i see origanally green some people wont like that but looks solid floors, wheel arch extensions not everyones cup of tea but good basis for rally rep maybe, especially having no sunroof i personally would go more than £400 without a proper crawl underneath and look at paint it would need abit to get road road worthy. and almost always more than you think. let me know
