About 10 years ago, I was given a 1975 TR6 by my mom's cousin. I've kept everything in running order, but she has never been the prettiest, or nicest smelling or (insert adjective here) car on the road.

Jump forward to last month, when my fiance, who is looking for a new car, says: "Why don't we just fix up the Triumph, and I'll drive that. I'll even pay for it."

So I've placed my first real order for parts (I'm starting with the parts that help keep all four wheels on the ground, since the engine is doing great), and I'm sure I'll be begging for help soon enough.

This looks to be a fantastic place to idle away the hours while at work... I mean at home... right...

I hope everyone has a great afternoon, and stay safe ot there!

:savewave: First WELCOME! Now Charles, you're fixing the TR6 for your fiance... hmmm I do hope you're a man of your words because this female says: "Once you drive an LBC, there is no taking back!" She sure is going to have a forever smile on her face. (Now that's cause for marriage and ergo, equal property rights. IMHO)
 
Hi Charles and welcome to the BCF. Glad you made it!

Howdy Charles,

Charles; You surely are a "Better Man" than I am!! As you may or may not be aware (?); Once your Fiance has a taste for the road with the top down etc. Your going to be hard pressed to get it back!

If you already have`nt done so; Introduce yourself to the nice folks on the Triumph Forum. They will be more than happy to help you out in whatever way you may need.
