Great to see so many members brave the early morning rain and bring out their Triumph’s on Sunday. Best part, all those hours in the shed for a fresh coat of paint paid off, and our Dolly won it’s Pride of Ownership Class. I did enlist the help of my 9yo daughter over the last weeks to help hold,retrieve and fit some parts, with finally her holding the bumpers CAREFULLY without scratching the fresh paint whilst I bolted them up.
Due to oil leaking into Plug #3, my Sprint didn’t make last years event. (lucky I have spare cars!!).
This year, I’m currently getting my 1850 ready for the day. It’s had a fresh coat of paint in my garage, and now needs a lot of cut ‘n’ polish. A few years ago at the DOT some of you may remember this car for the two white doors and white bootlid. It’s now finally all the one shade of Carmine Red. If it’s not finished, I can always enter ‘under restoration’? 
Wheels and tires are one of the categories for judges to inspect. My Dolomite Sprint wheels were in poor original condition, as can be seen but are turning out great with hours of effort at home, 1 side done, 2 weeks to get the passenger side finished
