Quoted from Beans Good effort getting the screen out, looks a tricky job! I was lucky with mine, it was taken out when it had the cage fitted - still got to get it back in though ![]() Neil. |

Oooo I like the green car in the background! 1969 2.5 PI (Soon going to be a 2.5PIE, EFI conversion under construction) 1971 GT6 mk3 (still going strong) 2007 Volvo V70 2.5T (After many years, again owner of a Swedish Turbo Brick) 2001 Audi A2 (replacement of the old Mini Cooper, and the total opposite. Will never ever rust but not exciting to drive) Survivor of 10CR05, LCC06, RBRR06, 10CR07, LCC09, 10CR11' 10CR13 RBRR14 and many many Dutch nightrallies. http://dutchtriumph.blogspot.com/ ![]() |

Brought the car away for the body repairs today, that stage should be ready in about two weeks ... Quoted from stricky Yes the body shell stayed in bath pretty long ... Will be completely shotblasted and primered after the body repairs are finished though. ![]() 1976 TR7 FHC (currently undergoing some TLC ...) 1980 TR7 DHC (a.k.a.
