Triumph TR4A 1960 in for fuel at Platts

 Monday 19th August: had this lovely 1960 Triumph TR4A in for Super Unleaded, notice the straps holding the rear window in fitted when it was racing to stop that rear window popping out at speed on the racetrack.

Hood repair for split rear window

Image
The hood split in multiple places back in the cold weather. I have finally gotten around to remove the hood to repair the rear PVC window. I have obtained a sheet of Vyback clear PVC window from Woolies Trim in Peterborough and I will be cutting that to size to glue onto the existing glued/welded rear window seem. I will be using StormSure glue which is a repair glue for all sorts of flexible material including Car Hoods, tents etc.. When the hood goes back on after a successful repair, hopefully! it will be fitted correctly in between the two sides of the rain channel as it came off having been originally fitted on top of that rain channel. This is a temporary repair as I will obtain a heated glass rear window hood sometime in the future.
