Quoted from Rust Restorer Dunno, at the moment I am looking for a nice destination for her maiden trip in July or August. Thinking about a trip to the Alps or maybe the North of England/Scotland. ![]() 1976 TR7 FHC (currently undergoing some TLC ...) 1980 TR7 DHC (a.k.a.

Undercarriage pics are great. Like Mike said it shows how simple it really is. Fantastic work! Where are your springs from? They look like they have a progressive spring rate. I haven't seen that in any of the usual supply catologues. Have a great drive. 1975 TR7 FHCCraig Hall |

Quoted Text And some picture proof ... ![]() ![]() ![]() Leaking wheel has been repaired too, turned out there were three leaks in the welding of the rim. List of things to do is getting rather short by now. Most importantly , with some 800 kilometres under the wheels so far, the knocking in the front suspension is getting less and less, I really have to provoke it now. Should soon be ready for its first Alpine trip in August [ ![]() ![]() 1976 TR7 FHC (currently undergoing some TLC ...) 1980 TR7 DHC (a.k.a.

Quoted from Rumpith Quoted from ianb Thx guys, just bear in mind it was quite a lot of work. Still not completely finished though, some small issues remain or keep popping up. But she's nearly ready for a final and (hopefully) decent photoshoot ...
