I am from Vancouver BC Canada. I am told we have the highest gas prices in
North America. Currently the price for regular (87 Octane) is about $2
CAD/liter. My last fill up for the Honda was $1.95 CAD/liter. $1.95 CAD =
$1.52 USD x 3.785 liters/US Gal = *$5.76* USD/US Gal..... I haven't filled
up the TR4 recently but I put 93 octane in it which will cost a lot more.

<br>
Alright, here's a question for the archivists...<br>
<br>
Am about to get my 'Longdoor' TR2 painted, and need advice about un=
der <br>
the bonnet (hood in USA)<br>
<br>
Where the front guards/fenders are bolted onto the inner guards from the <b=
r>
scuttle/firewall forward to the front apron, the heads of the bolts (6 <br>
each side) and washer underneath are visible. Anyone know for sure if <br>
they were just painted in the body colour along with everything else, or <b=
r>
unpainted & cadmium plated?<br>
<br>
I assume they were painted, and imagine that once the car is running <br>
again & I have done a few miles and everything has settled I will need =
<br>
to go round all those bolts and check if they need tightening again. If <br=
>
I do need to tighten them then I will probably damage the paint on the <br>
hex sides of the bolts unless there is some trick way to protect them <br>
when I put the socket onto them?<br>
<br>
All thoughts / suggestions gratefully accepted.<br>

=C2=A0I seem to recall that they are painted body colour (ie: the body was =
assembled before painting).? When I assembled my car I used stainless steel=
fasteners and and left them unpainted.? The appearance is striking with th=
e shimmering screw heads (which will remain shiny forever more) but I'l=
l bet it will be points off in a concours.<br>
I rather doubt they will need re-torquing if they are sufficiently snugged =
up during initial assembly.? I never had any issues.<br>
Enjoy the activity.<br>

I seem to recall that they are painted body colour (ie: the body was assemb=

Alright, here's a question for the archivists...<br>
Am about to get my 'Longdoor' TR2 painted, and need advice about un=
der the bonnet (hood in USA)<br>
Where the front guards/fenders are bolted onto the inner guards from the sc=
uttle/firewall forward to the front apron, the heads of the bolts (6 each s=
ide)=C2=A0 and washer underneath are visible. Anyone know for sure if they =
were just painted in the body colour along with everything else, or unpaint=
ed & cadmium plated?<br>
I assume they were painted, and imagine that once the car is running again =
& I have done a few miles and everything has settled=C2=A0 I will need =
to go round all those bolts and check if they need tightening again. If I d=
o need to tighten them then I will probably damage the paint on the hex sid=
es of the bolts unless there is some trick way to protect them when I put t=
he socket onto them?<br>

Good question.=C2=A0 Many restored TRs have unpainted fasteners and are not=
usually faulted during judging at shows.=C2=A0 Everything was painted from=
the factory, because the bodies were painted fully assembled (minus the fr=
ont apron).=C2=A0 They were even primed, red oxide, assembled.=C2=A0 When a=
car that was original is disassembled, there is primer behind the apron, b=
ut no paint where areas can't be reached once the apron had been instal=
led.=C2=A0 So, there was no paint or primer under the washers or door hinge=
s or between the fenders and tub.=C2=A0 Dumb dumb was used as sealer, gaske=
t material between the fenders (wings) and the tub.=C2=A0 <br>
I painted everything disassembled and carefully painted the fasteners separ=
ately too,=C2=A0 when I restored my TR3.=C2=A0 The car had never been apart=
before.=C2=A0 I paid close attention and photo documented every detail dur=
ing disassembly.=C2=A0 I was able to assemble the body without chipping the=
paint on the fasteners too much, then did a little touch up later.=C2=A0 I=
nstalling the fender beading after the paint was applied at the factory see=
ms challenging, but perhaps certain fasteners were left loose.=C2=A0 Like t=
he three bolts below the tail lights and screws along the truck lid and the=
two under the scuttle/cowl panel for the front fenders.=C2=A0 <br>
Good luck with your TR2.<br>
