1. [TR] TR3A Overheating (score: 221): Author: KingsCreekTrees at aol.com (KingsCreekTrees at aol.com); Date: Thu, 14 Jul 2011 20:25:04 EDT; Hi Dave; I'm not convinced an electric fan is going to cure the problem. If everything is as it should be, then in 85F weather the benefit of an electric fan would be felt only when idling or inching; /html/triumphs/2011-07/msg00533.html (9,931 bytes)
2. [TR] TR3 engines (score: 221): Author: KingsCreekTrees at aol.com (KingsCreekTrees at aol.com); Date: Mon, 25 Jul 2011 23:49:48 EDT; Yeah, Like Wot Randall Said. However, I would emphasise Randall's point by saying that, unless your engine was built in about 1958 and hung around before going to the Morgan factory, it's almost cert; /html/triumphs/2011-07/msg00702.html (10,260 bytes)
3. [TR] three point seat belts in a tr3 (score: 221): Author: KingsCreekTrees at aol.com (KingsCreekTrees at aol.com); Date: Wed, 3 Aug 2011 21:52:33 EDT; I fitted 3-point belts in my early 3A. I would say the chest needs to be kept well away from that non-collapsible steering column. I used Securon belts, drilled a hole through each rear wheel well an; /html/triumphs/2011-08/msg00272.html (9,482 bytes)
4. [TR] wire wheels (score: 221): Author: KingsCreekTrees at aol.com (KingsCreekTrees at aol.com); Date: Wed, 3 Aug 2011 21:58:32 EDT; I love my painted wire wheels. I think the painted ones look more purposeful than the chrome ones, which I think look a bit over-done. More to the point, I have had 48-spoke and 60-spoke wire wheels; /html/triumphs/2011-08/msg00273.html (8,493 bytes)
5. [TR] Seat Belts (score: 221): Author: KingsCreekTrees at aol.com (KingsCreekTrees at aol.com); Date: Tue, 6 Sep 2011 20:10:21 -0400 (EDT); Securon is a tried and true brand of seat belts for our cars. I'm guessing you must have lap belts only and that you want to replace them with lap belts, which is easy. If you want to change to 3-poi; /html/triumphs/2011-09/msg00069.html (8,565 bytes)
6. [TR] TR3A fuel troubles (score: 221): Author: KingsCreekTrees at aol.com (KingsCreekTrees at aol.com); Date: Tue, 8 Nov 2011 18:23:36 -0500 (EST); Nice one, Randall.

7. [TR] Did 1969 tr6 come with cheesy hubcaps? (score: 221): Author: KingsCreekTrees at aol.com (KingsCreekTrees at aol.com); Date: Mon, 14 Nov 2011 22:00:02 -0500 (EST); The early TR6 did indeed come with mag-style wheel covers. In fact, they were a trademark of many of the higher performance vehicles that Triumph produced in the '69-78 era. My dad's '70 Vitesse had; /html/triumphs/2011-11/msg00574.html (10,050 bytes)

(score: 221): Author: KingsCreekTrees at aol.com (KingsCreekTrees at aol.com); Date: Tue, 15 Nov 2011 20:04:05 -0500 (EST); Steve's comment is really good. Having lived on both sides of the pond, I'd say those trims are generally rated as highly undesirable in North America, but highly prized in the UK.

Mine TR3A also had the holes pre-drilled and threaded, with bolts in them, to accept the original factory Tr; /html/triumphs/2011-11/msg00744.html (8,876 bytes)

(score: 221): Author: KingsCreekTrees at aol.com (KingsCreekTrees at aol.com); Date: Wed, 7 Dec 2011 17:27:30 -0500 (EST); Hi Ann; Is that a 250V8 saloon (sedan) or an SP250 (Dart) sports? If the former, I'd suggest communicating with the Jaguar clubs, as the parts you refer to are the same, I am sure (basically a Mark 2; /html/triumphs/2011-12/msg00495.html (8,756 bytes)
11. [TR] TR 2/3 resonator in exhaust system? (score: 221): Author: KingsCreekTrees at aol.com (KingsCreekTrees at aol.com); Date: Wed, 7 Dec 2011 17:33:08 -0500 (EST); Hi all; I have an early TR3A which was fitted with the forward silencer and the rear resonator as part of the tailpipe. The rear resonator rusted, so I replaced it with a TR2 one (i.e., just a pipe w; /html/triumphs/2011-12/msg00497.html (9,587 bytes)

For those of you liking British beer, I can recommend one that is sometimes available in N.America: Fuller's London Porter (not London Pride--yuk!).

13. [TR] shipping (score: 221): Author: KingsCreekTrees at aol.com (KingsCreekTrees at aol.com); Date: Tue, 27 Dec 2011 12:43:07 -0500 (EST); I did, but a long time ago. At the time, I found the least expensive way (and the easiest) was to use the Greyhound bus shipping service. That only works if you're in North America, and you're shippi; /html/triumphs/2011-12/msg00762.html (8,608 bytes)
14.

I heard about poor fitment of tonneaus on earlier cars, so mine is a custom made one from an upholsterer. It didn't cost much m; /html/triumphs/2012-03/msg00196.html (9,781 bytes)

[TR] tonneau (score: 221): Author: KingsCreekTrees at aol.com (KingsCreekTrees at aol.com); Date: Wed, 14 Mar 2012 23:40:55 -0400 (EDT); I've never known of a tonneau, soft top, soft top boot, etc. to come with the snaps fitted. As all cars are a bit different (especially TR's!), most of the snaps would not match up. Tim In a message; /html/triumphs/2012-03/msg00227.html (7,806 bytes)
