Of She Goes!


And so we begin!!

She was collected last night by David from Anglian Triumph Services, and whilst David was here, a few more things have been added to the list of things to be done to Delilah!

She is now going to have the chrome seam strips from a MKIV spitfire, she is also going to be converted to overdrive, and is also going to have a twin sports exhaust system!! The interior has also not escaped changes, as the seats will be covered in black vinyl completeley, instead of Houdstooth and vinyl, which was the original factory spec. I decided this because i want a very black interior, as i think that goes better with the burr walnut dash that is going to be installed.

The colour has also been chosen now, she is deffinatley going to be Royal Blue, as this will look fantastic with the chrome highlights that will be on her!!

Where To Start???


Well, as of the 30th August 2006, Delilah (above) will be off to David at Anglian Triumph Services for major refurbishment, including:
  • New rear wing
  • Rust treatment
  • Welding on the underside
  • New interior
  • Engine conversion to unleaded
  • New suspension
  • And the big one - a new colour!
This list could grow as time goes on, but as of next week, this blog will detail all of the work that is going to happen, and has already happened on Delilah.
