Hi Richard i may have some bits for you, tried to call but without success.

Sounds like you need Tony White he has a large amount of spares tel 07830 226461 Good luck

Hi there Terry sorry, whatever someone is happy to pay for it would be the correct answer. Im not looking to get back what things owe me just need to thin things down a little. If you are interested come and have a look make me an offer.

Never been to Rally North Wales as a spectator so was just wandering to see if anyone has experience. Cars are sent off from Welshpool from 8am tomorrow morning. Looked at the entry list and it's quite good really plenty of Escorts unfortunately no TR7 V8s. Car parks on stage are £10 each but best of all, it is through the Welsh forests where the WRC cars run, so should be good fun. Quite a trek for me from Northampton but what a lovely part of the world to visit.

No longer available. Thank you to all that showed an interest Des

Hi JohnD 😀 Excellent article, you must admit bodgery is alive and very well demonstrated throughout. 270bhp though from the rear wheels, from a TR6, so at the flywheel thats ??? They are to be used with sense and sensibility im afraid, i would be fitting a rev limiter, to avoid over enthusiasm, and controlling the boost to a minimum from the outset. i don't think trying to add an extra 125% plus of power is what i would have been trying to achieve,,,,,glad somebody has though.

If there is any interest in this i would welcome any offer over £90 which is what it owes me. Many thanks all Des

Nick Jones, sorry, no not for a Gt6 or Vitesse but it will certainly make a saloon just that little bit different 😉

Hi Nick, yes it is an unusual thing for sure, that is why i purchased it, with the intention of using it on my saloon. There are a few TR6 's that have been converted to Turbo power or indeed Supercharged to gain a little bit more fun with the right foot, my idea was to try a 2L though. Pictures i have available unfortunately are from the original advertisement. These do give you a good idea of what it all looks like in situ. I hope this is of help to you. Included is just the turbo manifold and associated pipework, you will need your own carb/inlet manifold plus fuel and oil feed etc

I have a turbo manifold for triumph 2000 2500 for sale. Originally built for and fitted to a saloon.No turbo unfortunately, easily available though, offers please.Many thanksDes

Door cards and props gone many thanks

I also have a mild steel six branch manifold, purchased for a saloon but never fitted. Very old so surely must be worth saving. From memory it does have a patch welded on it somewhere, hopefully of use to somebody, make me an offer. After 30 plus years you do collect quite a bit of stuff, Im sure I will find some more.

Hi shenderson, come over have a look, see what you think.

Hi everybody I have some surplus parts which I'm looking at selling please, I am in Northampton. I know I will not get my money back on these items so I am open to offers if there is anything that you need. I have a full set of excellent black cloth pfl mk11 saloon seats, no runners on fronts I'm sorry Black door cards to go with above, excellent condition, no speaker holes Mk11 2000 auto saloon propshaft, purchased as a good spare and never needed Mk11 Stag white fibreglass bootlid 1500 Spitfire rear driveshafts with uprights Gt6/vitesse front brake calipers for refurb, perfect if you need some to exchange 2000 saloon black carpet set complete, I think this was called auto velour, so quite cheap, so it's not the best quality but it came out of a car really well, it does need some glue cleaning off but it's in good condition and it's yours for free if you need it Also 3 2000 saloon manual props all need balancing though, free Any items of interest please get in contact Many thanks happy new year

Just checking in with you frenchiemk2. Have been watching this for some time now, I think since July 21, last post was a while back, please give us an update. I'm hoping I haven't missed something and all the progress has been moved to a different thread 😉 Anyhow as many of us do, i hope all is well with you, I just can't wait to here how the triumph is coming on. You have done so very well, the car has come so far, it's been a fantastic journey to follow, all the help and encouragement too. Any update would be great ☺ please it's Christmas after all.

All sorted now, thank you to everyone that tried to help.

I have a manual overdrive mk11 saloon with a terrible vibration which i have caused by changing my propshaft uj's, so i was just wandering if anybody has a known good propshaft ready to fit.I am going to have mine balanced but that takes approximately a month at the moment

Would really love to see the crews pass through if there are any check points in Buckinghamshire 😉

Thank you thescrapman, that is exactly the line of enquiry i was looking for, a NOS one would certainly finish things off nicely.

Looking for a boot carpet please for my 2000 saloon. Just the bottom board mat required please, the one with the edging trim, the later ones didn't have this. Many thanks Des

Thank you shenderson, that is good to know. It is very kind of you to post the photo, I've added it to our collection ☺

That is a very clean and tidy boot area ☺ what with the correct tool bag and all. You even have the correct boot carpet, which is more than I have at the moment 😐 Good job 👍

thescrapman that is a Beautiful saloon, almost a mirror image ☺ I thought mine was an early one but WoW a H plate, it looks Amazing, a huge credit to you. Is yours manual or automatic? What a fantastic stable mate for the TR. It looks like another one is lurking in the back there also 😃 it is addictive This is my other soft spot, another early car, manual overdrive, Saffron with black interior

There is some good advise there by Nick Jones, frenchiemk2, this is a good place for help and support. I hopefully too have given you some divine inspiration. The little bit that you have already done looks fantastic, keep up the good work ☺

Piston tops cleaned, lots of carbon, all cam followers now done also. Just got to clean up the head and fit new gasket then reassemble and set up. Carbs were really quite rich but were running k & n style filters, I may put back to original air cleaner box and twin pipes. The carbs are early type with bottom adjustment, some people prefer these. Things are coming on slowly but hopefully sometime soon we shall be able to enjoy her again and with a little more confidence too 😃
