    Nice conversion Spencer Rifle. Double that battery life / range & I'd consider something like that too.

    What kind of electric motors does it use?
    Just one - 20 HP continuous series DC (Advance) 8" diameter. Still uses the old transmission, but shift points have changed. I could put lots more cells in, but I'd lose my rear storage or rear seats, and we use those a lot. Still have more pickup and range than with the old lead acid setup. Range is just fine for work/school/church/store runs. We use the Geos for longer range needs.

    :p to gas stations

    ok, surely you have documented this somewhere??? I would love to see more info on how you did the conversion, what parts you use, etc :)

    Nice, I have had a TR3, a Spitfire and a TR4 but never a TR6.

    I have also had a Sunbeam Alpine and a 59 MGA Coupe that I took on a 9,000 mile trip around the States in 79 after I got out of the Service.

    Sweet, my dad has a 69 Datsun 1600, and the Triumph and MGs remind me of it, same general style, his just has fatter headlights, and slightly more prominent "fins" on the back end... Fun car, can't wait until the restoration is done... (If he'll ever let me drive it, LOL)

    What's that base color? Is that... Titanium Frost?

    I dono, I had to give it up last year for a white Crown Vic. We went back to plain white. Man that gray looked good shined up. I am partial to gray. The white looks "ok" buffed out but that old gray looked sweet. The wife just got a "new" ride. 2009 VW Touraeg we drove to a Cincinnati VW dealer to buy. I love it. If I couldn't have my BMW...I'd have a Touareg. SUV's should not be this much fun.
