Listers,
The end of September signifies the start of a third year of Triumphing for me! What a ride its been! I'm even on to my 2nd Spitfire! Looking back at what I've done, its pretty scary... considering I'd never picked up a spanner before... let alone knew what a carburettor was! In a sort of list of highlights from memory... in order I might add... Carbs/Springs/Needles/K&Ns, Exhaust, UJs & Halfshafts, Front Shocks/Springs, New Engine & Gearbox, Radiator, Rear spring/shocks, Alternator, Full Sports Exhaust... Im sure there's more... and I've missed off all the little bits and pieces that make it so fun!... Here are some photos of me and my Dad taking apart my old 1500 apart this weekend... http://homepage.ntlworld.com/hj.carruthers/breakup1/DSCF0012.jpg http://homepage.ntlworld.com/hj.carruthers/breakup1/DSCF0014.jpg http://homepage.ntlworld.com/hj.carruthers/breakup1/DSCF0016.jpg http://homepage.ntlworld.com/hj.carruthers/breakup2/DSCF0006.jpg http://homepage.ntlworld.com/hj.carruthers/breakup2/DSCF0007.jpg http://homepage.ntlworld.com/hj.carruthers/breakup2/DSCF0011.jpg It's a bit sad to take the old girl apart... but many of the parts will be put to good use next year in my racing car... so it's not all sad news... Now I've just got to figure out how to remove the front suspension (I think I'll just undo the uprights :o) ) and then be able to lug it down the drive for the scrappy to collect... Anyway, onwards and upwards!!!! Here's to many more years of Triumphing! Hurrah! ====On a side note... has anyone noticed a large decline in messages to this list? I reckon its because of the various online forums... not to blame them or anything... but it does seem to be getting less and less traffic... personally I've been haunting the TSSC messageboard @ www.tssc.org.uk full of great people... and the useless chit-chat that I love so much! :o) James 69 Signal Red Spit *** http://www.team.net/the-local *** *** unsubscribe/change address requests to [EMAIL PROTECTED] or try *** http://www.team.net/cgi-bin/majorcool *** http://www.team.net/mailman/listinfo *** Archives at http://www.team.net/archive *** Edit your replies!
