No One Really Tells You The Hardest Part Of Getting Older

86. How cool! Always awesome to find another LBC person!

I've had Triumphs off and on my whole life, starting with my junk TR3 when I was 19. The whole time all I wanted was a TR6. Just before I retired I sold my Spitfire and found this '71, the car I should have driven to prom. That was in 1999. It's my life now and I've overhauled it a couple times now. I completely rebuilt the engine, did the interior, and had it repainted in the original Signal Red. Spax shocks all around, and a reinforced diff. It has one inch lowering springs, and a pair of dual throat Webers.

I found a hardtop for it a few years ago and put that on in late fall until late spring. I drive it every day in the summer because I don't know how long I'll be able.

My Soul Mate and DUer Samplegirl got a TR4 a couple years after I found mine. She bought it sight unseen from San Diego and had it shipped to Ohio when she got jealous of my car. It's a black plate California car. Hers is nicer than mine, but she does let me work on it. haha
