Hello from Greece

#1 Post by Matrix » Sat Jan 22, 2022 5:43 pm

Greetings everyone!
My name is Faidon live in Greece, and i have a Triumph 2000 MK1 1968. First owner was my father, bought it in 1968 from the Triumph dealership in Cyprus, it is a car that stayed in our family all these decades since the beginning, so we have many memories with it. It has covered thousands of kilometers in the whole country. Mechanically it works perfectly - both my father and i, were always gentle with the car. It is also rust free, after removing some surface only rust in the past.
I am the second owner and i am trying to fix what is left from my 'to do' list. Basically it has to do with the tapestry.
Any help in my questions will be greatly appreciated!
I am attaching a photo taken from the 1st Rally of Tripolis 2022 (Regularity Rally).
It covered there 500km including the trip to reach the place of the event.

Hello johnnydog

Thank you for your kind words!
I have already started reading posts (even from 2009) regarding tapestry.
There is a ton of knowledge for this matter and i believe that this will be a time consuming project.
