April 2013 update


Just a quick update on the progress of the Triumph. At the moment it is going pretty slowly with most of it in different boxes, parts off being Zinc plated, other parts being Chrome plated and waiting for different parts to arrive. I have just acquired some welding gas and will shortly be putting the spit jig together so I can work on replacing the floors and repairing any other corroded parts around the base of the wings and on the bonnet. Also due to a full time job, a family and the bird watching only small amounts of work are being carried out at the moment but new and replacement parts are arriving and preparing and rubbing down of parts is in hand.
