I like collecting TR7/8 related literature but what is this for?

1977 TR7 Sprint

Hi John,

Not a 100% sure but Thatcham do a lot ' time's ' for bodywork repairs, ie. how long to replace a damaged wing in the event of an accident,so a insurance company know's the cost, as I say not 100% sure though. They are also involed in alarms and tracking devices testing these and rating them, but dontb think that will applicable to this book.

I notice on The Register forum that Graham Robson is doing a follow up to his ' Works Triumphs ' book giving a lot more details called Works Triumphs In Details, should be a good read when out next year.


Cheers John

Thatcham are cetainly involved in car security and I seem to recall stage 1 referring to a particular level of security and I believe it still does. supercass

John, I found one of those cheap off Ebay myself.
Its a small pocket size booklet detailing all the body panels showing weld details etc. Also has bodyshell dimensions very much like the relevant pages in the factory workshop manual. Intended as a reference for bodyshops who wouldn;t be interested in the full manual. As well as the alarm stuff Thatcham also acted as a "best practice" guide for car body repairs for the insurance industry.

What does the 'stage one ' refer to? supercass

Was told today at college the thatcham database is also available online for body shops to look up details needed to do proper and save repairs.
