MY Money Pit in All its GLORY... wishful thinking!

November 2006 was when I laid eyes on this beauty, a 1977 TR7 4cyl, 4 speed; fell in love right away…. The yellow beast! I’ve been shelling out ever since. This is the first driving season! This was taken at a local bus shelter, I spoted the ad and did a double take. Turned the beast around waited for the car in front to leave and shot several! That’s the scoope…. Need a tall handsome man beside the beast.. he was too busy taking the photo!!!!!

    Soooory, no a TR 7, with a 4 banger! An expensive go cart! The lic Plate is a glow, says “1977 TR7”..

    My Dad’s just finished doing up an imported TR8. I got so excited because I’m on the hunt for a TR8 birthday card. I thought it might be a TR7 – I love them. Great shot and what a GREAT find!

    Good capture with appropriate advert, they were always money gobblers though. I used to own a Triumph 2.5 6 cylinder petrol injection model, it was great a real working mans roller, it would do 150 mph =,not that you could here but I did have at 120 once on the motor way, but my wife was not amused

    I need to lose a few pounds (like 20) that I gained over the winter. You had a picture of a pretty girl in underwear by the car. I just meant that I was commenting on the car.
