Triumph engines are so reliable I will never ever have a problem Rene!
Seriously though, Chris gave me the option of a flip front, but I chose what I have now instead.
I still am not sure if I made the right choice, but as the freshly deflowered virgin once said "its too late now"
Having said that, the bonnet opening is large enough easily for the engine to be removed. And access is fairly good above and below.
Oddly enough, Mick O'Malley, who is building the D Type version A352, opted for a non-flip front as well, then changed his mind,
and has converted to flip!
At the stage I'm at now though, I'll live with it.
See what I mean?
