I could never get a image to post...Getting old is not for whimps.. So I built a web page... Check out the paint job at: https://www.capt-roys.com/triumph.htm

I am so ready to start putting this back together.. And yes Bill, I headed to Cocodrie in the next couple of weeks.. Reds in the freezer for the winter is what I need... Want to join me??

That looks sweet Roy! I wish that my engine would have been out when mine was done, but it came out OK. Yours is done right and will look great with the engine back in. Now you can start to do all of the detailing to make it look terrific.
