Just watching Car SOS on tv as they're re building a pimento red Triumph GT6 mk3 just like the one I had. Mine at Seaton, Devon early 1970's. I had a conifer green mk1 before that, but a gas lamp jumped out in front of it. 
Car SOS now, GT6.

Oh, and there's a blue Z3 M in the garage where they're working! 
I believe Fuzz owns the Z3M.
I had a GT6 for about 20 years which I rebuilt from a rusty wreck. Only replaced when the Z came along.Just watching Car SOS on tv as they're re building a pimento red Triumph GT6 mk3 just like the one I had. Mine at Seaton, Devon early 1970's.

Bloody hell Mike…. Were you playing car skittles ? 
A slalom, they are great fun, like an autotest but all forward hence a bit faster. I used to do quite a few.Bloody hell Mike…. Were you playing car skittles ?
I did something similar with gas lamps Mike, but they turned out to be more resilient than plastic traffic cones! Cast iron gas lamps in 1969, wonder when the last gas lamp was phased out in the UK. Mk 1 GT6 versus gas lamp, both written off, call it a draw. The police closed the road because of the leaking gas. They weren't very pleased.
