The Triumph 2000/2500/2.5 Register Forum

New update been a while. I've have been busy I have checked over the engine and serviced where necessary. it's s quite a low mileage car but I have checked the bores and bearings all looked good so new gaskets and ancillaries fitted, new core plugs in the exhaust side and lick of paint. I've made an engine stand for storing it while other things are going on.

After all the effort the car is finally for the first time in Valencia Blue! Now the to do list has now quadrupled.

WOW!

That is stunning!! Top work! Keep it up, keep showing us please!

Fantastic!

I'm amazed at the attention to detail. It's really good to see that you're doing such a fantastic job. I hope I'll be able to see the car 'in the flesh' in the future. Keep up the good work, and keep posting!

Hello everyone I have a small update on the PI, just been sorting out boxes of fixings and parts which I have labelled thankfully and I have made a start. The brake lines and fuel lines have been fitted along with the sound proofing on the bulkhead on the inside, this being upgraded to a thicker modern neoprene material along with all the floor mats. The engine bay sound proofing I have decided to leave off really due to the deterioration of the material. When I removed this material there was rot in the bulkhead which has been repaired but suggests the sponge holds water from the outlets to the heater intake. The wiring loom is in place and will probably need shifting around a little. The lights and grille are installed.

I really appreciate the interest in the project really helps to keep the momentum going.

Excellent, inspiring work!

Seeng the gearbox cover plate, did you fit new cage nuts? My PI's were rusted solid and I had to drill them out...
