It's alive...again

[Triumph TR7V8 coupé]

...after 22 years of patience.

Promised myself a birthday present last wednesday an I got it; car has passed the MOT and has been register and is insured all on the 4th of April, my birthday.







Took it out for a ride and found the real cause for the engine problems I countered (bad coil). It runs great now but the carbs still need to be adjusted (mixture is to rich with high fuel consumption as a result).
Still need to refurbish the seats and also will adapt the rear silencers in the near future.
But I'm happy; one more 7 on the road.

Greetings, J.

I think the fuel consumption is caused by that 3.5 sign on the side. You need to take that off.[:D]

Nice car.....I could use one like that...I could always sell one of the Spitfires to make room.[:p]

That looks GREAT.

Front and rear mods, plus the fenders work perfectly together.

Great job!!!

Good to see that you got it registered without to much problems.
Bearing in mind that I don't like body kits, your car looks very nice indeed [;)].
I really like the widened wheel arches, and the colour suits the car very well.

And take care on those roads they look familiar, so you might encounter this [:p]



And a belated happy birthday ...
