Lovely day


Fantastic day for driving your lovely old banger round the countryside,as long as the roads are as clear as they are here in the midlands.Been driving the old 2000 a fair bit this year and its on days like this that it realy hits home why we love these cars..fantastic just wish the heater was a wee bit better.

Whats been happening at KD Triumph..


Bloody loads to be honest..Service and Mots are flooding in and have been since may, so many Triumphs on the road lately its fantastic, the workshop has been busy with its project cars too (Don't forget the projects page on website like i did, updated now a bit)The 2.5 EFI Spitfire body shell is finished and back from paint shop looking absolutely fabulous in Black, Pete Robins MK3 Spitfire is being trimmed after having its lovely red paintwork, Martines Herald is currently at the paint shop also red, Annets TR6 has been "looked at" before its restoration having its wings removed for inspection of inner shell(not good)think that's going to need another shell like Mick Davis Spitfire that's also in for rebuild, the list goes on so wont bore you too much , Herald estate chassis change , 1200 Saloon rebuild oh and my TR8 project...And if thats not enough Ami,s MK3 Spitfire front end crash damage repair we did a couple months ago needs to be done again !!! apparently a hair dressers shop jumped out in front of her ?, another new bonnet needed !!Hope your feeling ok Ami.
See you all at Stafford next weekend, the Coventry lot will be going camping as was planed for last year but a certain lotus ended that idea.
Cheers, ill be the one drinking Martini....by the pint.

Busy Busy


The good weather has certainly opened garage doors letting classic cars flood out ,I've never seen so many on the roads even during the week and on my way into work.Fantastic !!
Been busy as ever in the workshop with servicing and MOTs and the big restoration jobs coming on nicely (see projects pages)
Had some tasty cars in for repair recently one of which seems to of started something off with the workshop lads and myself to be honest in the shape of a TR8.
More to come on that one..
Mark McLean's Stag also been in for some gearbox work as this lovely motor is for sale at the moment and he wants it to be in top order for its new owner, is only just been in for sub frame and trailing arm bushes as he wasn't happy with the old ones.This will be a top car for someone as its proven itself with completing CT Round Britain recently.Details on CT website cars for sale.

Hmmm TR8s
