"After finishing a 20 year restoration of my TR3a - TS 70144  on Saturday night, I entered the Triumph Sports Owners Association South Australia Sunday event just for fun. I won the Concourse for the TR2 -TR3B Category. Unbelievably I also won the best overall Concourse car. This is the first time I had ever driven the car. I didn't rebuild the car for show but just for my pleasure so it was a nice surprise." Noel

Lots of attention to detail in the engine bay
