This should be a great addition to the club. All we have to do is learn how to actually use it - teaching an old dog new tricks so to speak. I will post weekly updates of the TR4 progression - consider this Post 1 of TR4 restoration from Moose Mountain Motors. A little background info is needed to start - project started by acquiring two 62 solid axle Triumph TR4's - total investment $200 plus some bloody knuckles - didn't hit anybody, just scraped them loading the vehicles on the trailer. Stripped both cars and determined which chassis looked the most solid to build on - being NWOnt cars neither chassis was great but one had relatively low mileage and was straight - continued to strip both until the chassis was ready to go to the blasters - Clara Industrial did a thorough job for minimal cost - some of the chassis was swiss cheese upon it's return - decided to cut out and replace the worst parts and then cap the main rails of the chassis to strengthen the whole thing - see photos of chassis after repair and primed with epoxy primer -
Stayed tuned for the continuing saga of "A Tale of Two Triumphs".
