Started today by hammering flat the flange on the front edge and marking a new line so hopefully the inner wing would meet the front inner flitch better. After a lot of off and on fitting I'm almost there. It doesn't follow the line of the old wing on this section but does the job.
When fitting the outer wing again it will need a little more persuasion... sorry adjustment.
I also cut and welded in the missing lower section to the front lower edge - this needs a little more work to blend it in - but pleased with the results so far.

This is my record of the restoration of my 1977 Triumph TR7, I bought the car in 1983 for £1500. Over the four years of driving it I had got married, moved to a 110 year old cottage in need of renovation and given a new company car. The TR was parked in the garage (1987) at the end of the garden. I always joked saying "that one day I put it back on the road". Twenty-four years later (Nov 2011) that day has arrived - wish me luck.
