Love the hats... these really are a great looking car, in all its guises. I think they will get more and more popular... hope there are enough Triumphs to use.

Thats interesting about the german bonnet, its what i wanted to do, but is it a german bonnett? The lights look wrong, looks more like a hybrid between the german style and the standard bonnet.
Good look with the new build chaps

Gosh, I'd better get a move on or you'll have your third one finished before me!

Green and yellow car looks stunning, I especially like the interior.
