Has anyone got any thoughts on the viability of using JBWeld to secure one of these studs? I have one loose (probably over-torqued) stud, the others are fine. This one takes about 8 ft-lbs of torque

For those who have installed the L661 reversing lamps on their TR4s: I understand that the lamps mount by means of a bracket that itself is attached to the lower bracket attachment point on the rear

I believe that the TR4 and 4As had optional dual L661 reverse lamps, each located just to the outside of each rear overrider. There is a good picture of them in Piggott's book. The later 4A with the

This is totally off topic. But I suspect that more than a few of my fellow listers will appreciate this. I'm a fan of the old Hawaii 5-0 series. Remember that great car that McGarret had in the first

On the relative price of gasoline worldwide, I do believe it is mostly all a matter of taxation. Europe and much of the world seem to tax gasoline heavily in order to fund road construction and/or ma

Re: Why the poor resale value on TRs? I think the reason is that Triumphs (and other British cars of the era) are now the cars of Old Men. The TR4 is now 40+ years old. In the 1970s, a similar reach-
