  1. Hi everybody I know you have far more important matters to deal with but if anyone can spare a minute I would appreciate it. My question is this: what is the original colour for the rocker cover on a 1968 13/60? The one in my car is orange; I am thinking of giving it a touch up but thought I might as well check what the original colour was. Thanks
  2. [face=Times][/face]Hi, just been outside admiring my 13/60 convertible in the sunshine and thought I ought to do something useful, 8) the back seat measures: Across back at narrowest point 84cm Across back at widest point i.e. front 102cm Seat base front to back 43 cm Hope this helps. :o

    Oil & water gauge

    [face=Times][/face]Hi Richard B : When I think about it my modern car only has a basic temperature gauge and the idiot light for the oil pressure and this doesn’t worry me. (think) Maybe I’m worrying too much about not worrying, I’ll stick with the system installed then I can concentrate on worrying about where to go for the next outing & tinker with my wallet to find the money for petrol.(dizzy)

    Oil & water gauge

    [face=Times]Thanks to everyone for the advice and comments, all very useful. As usual there isn’t a clear yes / no answer, it all adds to the colour and variety of life. I’ll give it some thought as I’m inclined to stick with the original items, there are simple like me. :) Alex : Yes it seems that Brittany has an active classic car scene. The Normandy branch of the French Triumph owners club has its first outing of the year later this month & I hope to get there, I have something else that day but should be able to meet up at least to say Bonjour. Thanks for compliment about the car[/face].
  5. [face=Times]Hi guys, please be gentle with me, :o I know this will seem an idiot question to you but I’m new around here. I’m thinking of fitting the Smiths combined water temperature & oil pressure gauge to my 13/60 to replace the existing gauge and green light. Is the kit easy to install? From the photos is seems to come with one sensor and cable already attached but not the other, whichever one it is. (whistle) Running cables would be straight forward enough I would think. Does it take its power from the voltage regulator or a new feed? I can’t find any fitting instructions or detailed info anywhere and wouldn’t want to spend the money without being reasonably confident about it. Thanks for your invaluable help. [/face]
