Started by removing the release bearing assembly and bearing, then seven bolts being careful to catch the three compression spring inserted in the casting.
Cleaned off the old gaskets and given the bellhousing a first clean inside and out, also striped off the brackets from the rear of the gearbox for clean/painting.

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.
