There are 2 Colins here. Colin the owner was having Colin L in SA doing the restoration work. paint and minor stuff to be turn key.
Are the HQ discs on HQ stubs? If they are it does horrible things to your steering.
It seems to steer OK but haven't driven it fast (yet). Grant Furlong has though.
Definitely needs Triumph discs, hubs and wires, plus a triple SU inducted X2 under that flip bonnet!
It HAS a triple SU inducted X2 under that bonnet. The block is an HP block. I had a Mk 7 years ago that used a TR4 chassis and wire wheels and of course my old Mk 5 which I believe was the Mk5 brochure car had the wire wheels using adapted Triumph hubs fitted to the Holden front end. That particular car ended up with HK front and rear ends and looked very tough with the wide track stance.
