Made a start this afternoon on looking at the work to be done to the front end body. There is some surface rust but not major. The two corner areas under the bonnet and the front of the inner wings at the bottom.
The lower front panel which is behind the spoiler has a couple of small rust holes which will need patching.
I've pull out the front lights/flasher wiring from the top headlamp panel and back through the wing in the engine bay near the battery area.
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.
