GOOD WEATHER, GOOD SPIRIT

Well it's definately been too long since lot's of work had been done on "The Queen" but now that the weather here in the Middle East has reached it's best, so has my motivation to continue with the project.

Back in May The Queen was returned to my garage. After a short try to restart the engine, I noticed that there was some sort of short circuit inside the wiring. I've taken this as a chance to order new wiring harnesses etc. and I am currently waiting for these to be delivered. Once they are here I plan on redoing all the wiring (if anyone has a good wiring plan please let me know).

A couple of weeks ago I started putting all the bits and pieces back together. TRIUMPH lettering, bumpers, lights etc. It's taking longer to put it all back together than I expected, but it's coming along slowly but surely.

One major problem I've experienced is that putting the indicator lights back in, it seems like the bodyshop has aligned the holes wrong and I therefore can not fit the lights into the holes since there is no space between the holes and the "wheel arches". It seems like the only feasable solution is to drill a hole through the arch to be able to fit them. Again if anyone has had a similar problem please let me know what you did.

That's more or less it for now. I'm sure there'll be more to come soon.

Thanks for reading and looking forward to hearing from you.
