Thanks for the update - keep us posted.

Quite a few TR guys locally for when you are ready to motor, or just need an extra pair of hands.

If I can comment. Many people are changing their minds when it comes to color choice. I stuck with an original Triumph color, but didn't paint my car it's original Saffron color. If you are going to show for points, that's one thing. But if you are going to do the best possible job you possibly can do and show the car car locally, you should paint it the color you want.
That's an opinion, but one shared by others on the forum.

Yeah I'm thinking about going with a different color. I will keep it a 74 TR6 color but probably not brown.

Miser, I watched your video and gasped when you said you were going to paint the car its original color because " that's what you do when you restore a car". Thankfully , you're having second thoughts. The only way it would matter is if the car were rare and or a desirable color . Neither of which is the case. Do what you want. Kevin
