I don't know, it is very quiet.
Our 'static' out of date website I don't think is helping either. Desperately trying to resolve this!

Having said that, we appear to have set a record number of 70 users online at the same time last Friday evening (and I wasn't one of them :) )
Trouble is, they were all lurking in the shadows and saying nowt!

No it dosn't!

Tony removed the bonnet, and nose cone during the cars last resto due to excessive corrosion in the bonnet frame work (the hinge section).

However they were saved, and they are now carefully stored in our workshop.
What do I know?

Make that 5 MKIII's.

There's only a couple of them on our museum website, but last time I counted we had 5 actual cars here.

Or Tony Luxton (ex Triumph Experimental and was at Land Rover when I started there in '95). Doesn't his MkII have similar front panel and bonnet mods?
Tony worked for us for a couple of years, and he still pops in regularly.

He is a true font of information about all things experimental, and he has generously donated several unique items from his days at Triumph to our collection (amongst them his own MKIII bonnet, and nosecone).
