Hello,
After taking a break from caring for my Triumphs for too long, moved around the world too much the last couple of years, I will be needed some advice in the future. I bought my first LBC when I was 16, it was a 1964 Triumph TR4 purchased from Harold Rinninger in Portland, Oregon. I still have it and have disassembled and reassemble because of moving 3 times. Currently it is waiting of a reassemble after a frame of restoration start. Frame and Body were dipped and painted, but unfortunately 3 wings now have a little bit of damage all from moves in a container. My other project in a 1972 TR6 it was my dad's and he left it to my son, but I am taking care of it until he is old enough. The 6 is currently having electrical issues after the winter slumber that I am having difficulties figuring out at the moment. Started with new battery today as it was 12 years old. Once my projects are up and running again I have promised my wife that she can have an early spitfire next.
Cheers,
John-Glen

Welcome to BCF, John,
I lived in Germany as a kid (Dad was US Army), but in a much different part of the country (Southwest). You'll get plenty of help here.
