Ok, only a few people know the story behind me acquiring my lil' '80 TR7, but
in short it was unexpectedly "given" to me. So, i thought since i had it I
would restore it b/c all that have looked at it for me say that it is in good
shape. NOW I am being told by a former Triumph nut (meant in the most
affectionate of ways) that TR7's are junk and I should get rid of it ASAP.
That they tend to have a lot of engine problems, esp. here in FL , that the
gasket heads tend to blow, and other more serious and expensive problems. i
am a newbie at this and am looking for info from the people who know----ALL OF
YOU EXPERIENCED TRIUMPH NUTS!!!! (meant int eh most affectionate of ways!) I
want the good, the bad, and the ugly. I am a big girl, be brutally honest. I
can take it!
Thanks,
