T-Series The TF Is Done!

Well, after over 5 years the TF is finally done. Had it out a couple times and it runs and handles terrific! Hard to believe the long haul is over. :encouragement: Have to wash it and wax it, but in near 100 degree heat, that's not going to happen until it cools down a bit. The other day the heat index here was 114 degrees. Here's a few pics. PJ

Marvin, your not serious are you!!! No more TFs, ones enough! :highly_amused: . If I did another one, it would probably be an MGA coupe. I have to rest up a bit, I'm tired of punishing myself. :beaten: PJ

First you're going to have to add on a room to the house to put all the trophies in. Funny how it works when you finish a restoration. It's "never again." Then after a couple of months something catches your eye and you start looking at ads. Next thing you know you're up to your elbows again.

Well JP, lets say, it's done for now! Next Winter, even though it handles well, it's getting a front sway bar installed and didn't want to get tied up anymore this summer. Something to do in the Winter. Have to assemble the side curtains when they come, which doesn't prevent me from driving it and I really don't need them anyway at the present. So I agree, MGs never leave you alone. At least we never get bored! :highly_amused: PJ
