This looks like a potential show winner in the making. Excellent post and standard of work.

We will be bringing the Mk1. Just washed off half of Devon from the underside of the car.

Eureka. I have it or in about a months time you will have it. The gear lever is found. Its is the shorter one because I also have the longer one in the same box of bits. So will bring it to the National John.

HI John,

If I can get Mandy up to speed on driving Triumphs it could be both. Otherwise the MK1, It is 49 years old this year. I better start searching for the part it could take a day or two in the garage.

Chris

Will be bringing one Pi's. If I have a fuel tanker to follow I could bring two but that could be a logistical nightmare later on. We are continuing our hols in Devon for another week. I'll have a think about it. Also the MK2 is a pig to steer no PAS, got lazy since my youth. I count 39 sleeps to go ...

Where do you find these cars. Keep up the great work. Where do you find the time/energy these are big projects you are taking on so impressed. Don't get the parts mixed up between cars. I jest hats off to you.
Chris

P.s we will have to get together sometime. Still have you number.

John,
I may have one I'll have to dig around in the garage etc. But it should still be there. Are you at the National. If I find it I'll bring it along.

Chris
