I thought I would use this time to say hello and give a brief background of my self.

My name is John I currently own a TR250. The car has been in my family since 69. My grandfather bought it with around 7000 miles on it. When I was in about 6th grade my dad went and got it from him. It had a small oak tree growing through the middle of it and my first impression was "You can't be serious that we are taking this home to restore it"

I helped my dad for around 10 years restoring it. It is around 95% still original. With the only body parts replaced being the floor and trunk pans. When he passed away in 08 I took over ownership.

I currently still drive it and keep up the maintenance on it.


I had an account on here a few years back and as I hardly ever keep up with anything in computers lost my account info so I just opened a new one. Just thought I would say hi to everyone.
 
Hi John, welcome back. lets have some good pics of the 250 with and without tree.
 
I have some pictures of after. But I can't seem to find the photo album of the build. As soon as I find them I will post them up on here.
 
I don't have a way to upload the current pictures at this moment but in the triumph thread I have a post titled Thoughts on selling my TR250. In it is a post from me with some links to my photo bucket if you would like to see them right now
