Something Different
Here's a few piccies of a project i have been doing for a while in between a few other bit's and bob's.
As usual it looked a lot better with the Rose coloured glass's on, Tank top nearly seperated from bottom on removal and the source of low compression turned
out to be a holed piston , the list of horror's goes on but i thoroughly enjoyed it even though i went over budget if there ever really is one on a restoration at
my house.
It's a 1969 Triumph TR6C and i do have the correct coloured tank for it but this was closer to hand when i wanted to take picture's.
I hope you enjoy them even though it's not got the big K on the tank

Hi Bill
congratulations, you did a beautiful job!
Never mind going over the budget, it's the joy and satisfaction of restoring an old bike that counts !

Re: Something Different
The colouring of the green tank is real nice.

Busy Bill.
Great looking machine (even if it's not a trident ).
If this bloody rain ever stops I'll be over to check it out.
Cheers

All assembled now in the proper colours for a 69 model just fuel pipes to connect once the appropriate tap fitting's arrive.
