After 24 years of sitting, waiting for me – I turn her crank tonight!
After removing the four NGK plugs I gave each bore a good dose of DW-40 and then gently with a spanner turned the nut on the front pulley, I turned and she moved smoothly.
A great relief – if it was seized who's to say what I would find.

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.
