My 3A came with rusted out floors and sills, 3 inches of racoon poop in the engine bay, and fecal dust that blanketed the air as I pounded brake drums to loosen them enough to push out of a shed in Ossinee, NY. Replacing the wiring loom seemed...uhm...wise.<br></p><p style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(51, 51, 51);"><br></p><p style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(51, 51, 51);">No wiring problems since I did it in 2004.

Have gutted the bathroom in our house, so had to move the car outside for the duration. Even with a top-rated tonneau and a car cover on top, water still pooled in the trunk and on the floors. Still no problem with wiring. But have to wonder, how do people actually drive in the rain? Was it EVER dry inside????<br></p><p style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(51, 51, 51);"><br></p><p style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(51, 51, 51);">Terry Smith, '59 TR3A<br></p><p style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(51, 51, 51);">New Hampshire<br></p><br><blockquote type="cite">On August 20, 2018 at 2:58 PM David Templeton <davidt@opentext.com> wrote: <br> <br><div class="ox-fd63484397-WordSection1"><p class="ox-fd63484397-MsoNormal">Agreed, my ‘3a was a complete replacement and I was glad of it <span style="font-family: 'Segoe UI Emoji',sans-serif;">😊</span> the one are to not worry about.

The actual wire was oxidized even inside the plastic insulation so doing anything with it was a pita. I opted to replace it with a new loom and it was money well spent. </span></p></div><div><p class="ox-fd63484397-MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif; color: black;">Stan </span></p></div><div class="ox-fd63484397-MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;" align="center"><hr width="98%" size="2" align="center"></div><div id="ox-fd63484397-divRplyFwdMsg"><p class="ox-fd63484397-MsoNormal"><strong><span style="color: black;">From:</span></strong><span style="color: black;"> Triumphs <<a href="mailto:triumphs-bounces@autox.team.net">triumphs-bounces@autox.team.net</a>> on behalf of David Templeton <<a href="mailto:davidt@opentext.com">davidt@opentext.com</a>><br> <strong>Sent:</strong> Monday, August 20, 2018 9:26:16 AM<br> <strong>To:</strong> 'Triumphs List'<br> <strong>Subject:</strong> [TR] to loom or not to loom...</span></p><div><p class="ox-fd63484397-MsoNormal"> </p></div></div><div><div><p class="ox-fd63484397-MsoNormal">Ok so the other project, besides getting the ‘3 going is the body replacement on the spsitsix.
