Fantastic progress. Must have been a bit nerve racking wedging that engine back in with all that shiny new paint. Looks great! 1975 TR7 FHCCraig Hall |

Beans, I notice you don't have the fresh air vent scoop attached. Are you going to put that in, or forego it? That bit was one of the few that my TR7 did not have when I bought it. I'm not sure if I want to spend the time/money finding a used one, or find an alternative, which is why I'm inquiring. ![]() Resto gallery: http://www.azprophotog.com/TRix7e/album/ |

In my experience fresh air scoop needs to be used, unless you like fumes. Robsport or S and S will have secondhand ones.
