Tom. I’ll be doing videos of the post-mortem as I really don’t have any idea.

But on to the triumph. I’ll be doing some work on it as I wait for parts or $$$$ for the Cobra :roll: :lol:

Here is the hood part 4.

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:

I've made a video of color sanding and buffing the hood for the Triumph.
It's about 10mins long.

Another week of the Triumph planned. This is the video my brother made. We did get the motor to start but no oil pressure.
I had made a stick to turn the oil pump with a drill the last time and we got pressure but a major leak at the canister oil filter stopped progress.
So, we pulled the distributor again and did the drill thing. This time running it much longer and it burped a large amount of air. So, in the morning we will try again and see if it drained back or not.
