boxofbits Posted April 18, 2022 Report Share Posted April 18, 2022 Hi Marco I noticed TR Revington have got a secondhand scissor jack priced pretty cheaply. You’ll have to order the handle separately. https://www.revingtontr.com/product/212677zsh/name/second-hand-jack You might as well buy the screen capping at the same time Kevin Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Marco, Bologna, Italy Just be aware that the winscreen capping, as an aftermarket replacement, can be quite flimsy and easily damaged during raising and lowering of the roof. I looked on line and bought a nice second hand, original cap from the USA. Yes, it needed a little bit of fettling, some scratch removal and a good polish, but, once done and fitted, it looked as though it had always been there.

CK's TR6 Posted April 20, 2022 Report Share Posted April 20, 2022 My original one was quite scratched and a bit beat up from 40 years of putting the hood up. So, I ordered a nice new one. Rather than let the old one go, I powder coated it in black, along with the chrome strips under the doors. I put them on as an experiment. I haven’t gotten the motivation up to put the nice new ones on. I kinda like the black look now. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
