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.

88°C – I wish...
Just as a reminder when ordering the Thermostat it needs to an 88°C (190°F) rating.

Engine breakdown... pt2
Next the thermostat housing, thermostat and temperature transmitter. I need to place the housing because when I was removing the radiator and hoses the expansion bottle outlet pipe was corroded and snapped off.
