Re: [emrat:14799] My 1978 T140

Thanks for sharing "Missouri Bob".  You've made a lot of progress!  Great to have that Triumph Forum with folks who have done it before able to supply so much info and websites etc. for getting parts and questions answered.  Nice to have the workspace necessary to do things right and lay everything out.  The frame looks terrific!
