Tom 215 #1 Posted June 27, 2015 Hi all, Picked another one up today, it was advertised as spares and to my surprise when I arrive it was being towed out of the shed by a wheel horse!! He said it just needed a battery so I stuck one on when I got home and some fresh fuel and off she went and I drove it off of the trailer, always a bonus Tom 5 slf-uk, Triumph66, Alan and 2 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
slf-uk 914 #2 Posted June 27, 2015 Wow Tom, that looks great and 10 times better than the pictures in the advert. Are you planning to clean it up and go over it mechanically or a full restore? Iain Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tom 215 #3 Posted June 27, 2015 Thanks Iain, it was a pleasant surprise to see it in the flesh as it did look a bit of a basket case in the pictures. Plan is to give it a wash and a service and use it as much as I can Maybe one day I'll restore it but not for now I'll leave it as it's pretty original.

slf-uk 914 #4 Posted June 27, 2015 Sounds like a great plan, I think it will clean up well. Don't forget the pictures once it has been cleaned up. I would love to take it for a spin at some point. It's been a good day in Norfolk but I am not sure what we are going to do once we have finished bringing all the good ones home Iain Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Triumph66 1,256 #5 Posted June 28, 2015 That's a tidy find Tom and good to see something different too. I think you Norfolk Boys ought to lay off buying anymore GTs so we others can get a look in. It seem anything that moves and in any colour are nailed by you and Iain! 1 slf-uk reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You can also have a play with the lathe! Tom That's a tidy find Tom and good to see something different too.

Thanks Andrew, I'm certainly pleased with it. I think that's it for me for a while now, I really must stop!! Tom Sweet! Yeah, stop buying and leave some for us I just can't stop, it's an addiction Tom 3 Triumph66, nigel and slf-uk reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
