So if you have another 10mins to waste...try this link.

Re: 1968 Triumph TR250 restoration

I've made a video of color sanding and buffing the hood for the Triumph.

After race inspection

I took the other fan off good thing I zip tied it. And I drained the oil seperator on the PCV from the 3 sessions. About a 1/4 cup. During my research on replacing the fan. It seems like they were taken from the heater box of full size fords back in the day. They are used in refrigerators and stuff ...

Track Picture

I don't know exactly where this shot was taken, but after looking at the higher resolution copy it looks like the left rear is squated and the right front is being pulled off the track...now that is hooked up :whistle: By the location of the yellow tape I have for the top of the steering wheel it is...

Best toy wins

Cobra got tired also part one

I skipped the last session as I was getting a little tired and my gut was telling me the Cobra was a bit tired also. Post race inspection has told me that my gut was right on. The fan issue showed up after the second session. I was lucky in both the fan staying in the front area and that it didn't ...

Daytona 4/21/23

I was parked by couple of nice young fellows who were there for practice and the team photographer really liked the cobra so he asked me if it was ok to take some pictures.

1968 Triumph TR250 restoration

Its been a while sense I've done an update on the Triumph.
As explained in the video we had trouble when I painted it New Year's weekend and it sorta knocked the wind out of us for a while.

Now things should be back to making progress. :lol:
