Happy Christmas to me



Well, after months of waiting, I've finally got my 8 spoke Wellers on the TR7, together with a fresh set of 185/70/13 tyres. I've also taken the opportunity to order some blue magnetic sheeting to cover stickers on the car where event regs dictate. Spot covers will have to wait for a bit longer unfortunately, as Xmas budget now all spent. MOT, tax and insurance is next thing to fund. Time to raise funds by looking for random crap in the loft to flog on ebay....

What next?

So, what next to do on TR7?

My Xmas(ish) wish/to do list consists of: -
A new set of Lucas foam spotlight covers.

Some blue magnetic sheeting to cover up stickers on events to meet road rally regs (the blue plastic and insulation tape I currently use has seen better days!)

Put 'Triumph' wording transfer on roof with Union Jack sticker.

Get a new set of 185/70/13 tyres for the white Weller 8 spokes I've recently got hold of.

I've got an old set of Weller 8 spokes I'm also selling at the moment. That should raise a bit of cash to pay for some of the above - hopefully!

Event wise, I'm thinking of entering the Bedford Car Club autotest on 28 Dec. Want to try and get as much usage as I can out of it as early new year brings with it MOT, tax and insurance, which I'm still working out how I'm going to pay for :S (!)
