My 800$ 69 now looks more like it might live( today.) Pulled the plugs and sprayed PB blaster into the bores.
after setting for a few hours , it turned over by hand! I was surprised and pleased.
No title or keys but Less rust than most you see around here. Now for the slippery slope of resurrection.
I am thinking of just a wing off/tub on frame resto.Pale yellow(#34). I of course have a 5 speed for it.

Bits and bobs are what these cars were built of. No chips, screens, or "driver assist"
 
Started with a set of forged steel rods. All Triumph motors deserve a good foundation so they can
rev freely. Did not have the $$ when I did my first 6. Plus the prices are now very reasonable. Maxspeed
has them for $ 450 and comes with ARP hardware. When the rods all weigh the same, balancing is a breeze.
