Thanks George. There are times when I nearly gave up on the car and making the videos. I'm glad that I persevered on both counts.

Engine sounds great now. I had a lot of problems with my original petrol tank, so much crud in it, in the end I put a new alloy one in end of problem. You have made a great job on the inside. It will be worth it everywhere you go you will get positive comments. Nice car

Ive still got a slight misfire going on. I managed to find a really good mechanic who used to work on these cars back in the day so Ive booked him in to come in next week to go over everything Ive done and fine tune it. Thats literally the final job as far as it stands

If you are on a budget, you might want to consider the SS bumpers from either the Harrington Group or Bumper Automobile ( both Vietnamese). I’ve got a set on my TR250 and are happy with them.

I would think twice about fitting a stainless steel exhaust, I deeply regretted changing from mild steel to stainless when I had my TR6 as it completely ruined the great sound and was far noisier. And I imagine that a mild steel one will last very long if the car is not driven on salty roads
@treetopspider Жыл бұрын
That actually makes really good sense. I can imagine that this car will spend most of its life in a garage and only coming out to play on a hot and summery day. Which by the way is precisely why I sold the hard top ☺
