Rick,
I would still like to see a look-up data base with a cross reference to all
parts, alternate parts, applications(models of cars, Marques), etc.

Subject: Triumph Technical Reference Database--good idea? or not

>Hi Everyone!

>I've been talking with Jeroen van den Bergh (of the Triumph Spitfire
>Club, Holland) about the possibility of compiling a large "technical
>reference database" online. The idea is to take advantage of the web
>as an excellent means of providing technical articles (text and
>pictures) regarding the restoration, modification, and maintenance of
>our Triumph cars. We want to keep them rolling!

>As it stands right now many of us place technical material on our web
>sites, no doubt as it a means to encourage visitation from other
>triumph enthusiasts. I know the VTR site contains numerous articles.
>The idea is not to take away from this but rather to complement it.

>The database would be more like an "index" with links to those
>articles provided by individuals (or clubs or other factions for that
>matter). Plus due credit would, of course, be provided. For example:

>"Replacing U-Joints on Spitfire 1500", by Fred Q. Jones (email if
>author desires)
