Parts/Parts/Parts and Workspace Maintenance

Today I ventured into the garage after a couple of weeks of non-action. Vacation called out and I answered followed by a consulting job opportunity that I needed to explore. Now I am back on track for some Triumph project progress.

Before I left on vacation my mother very generously gifted me some money to assist with the restoration. The gift was unsolicited and as such very much appreciated as a spontaneous gesture. The cash will help me purchase the parts I need to finish the car to a "drivable" status. In preparation I transferred my needed part list to an Excel spreadsheet I am keeping and looked up the part numbers and prices in the Moss catalog. Although tempting to order the parts I have decided to hold off temporarily and adopt a "just in time" approach...

The rest of my time today was spent cleaning up the garage getting ready for my next work session. I am physically weary today and as a result determined not to do any actual work on the car.
