I had been thinking about replacing my oil pump, but with a second one from the donor I decided to see if this could save some money.
I used parts from both to build one within the data spec from the manual - I do need a couple of O rings for the internal rotor and the relief valve. I'm also going to replacing the drive spindle as these are both worn but £50 saved!

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.
