Triumph TR3 -Scrub-a-dub-dub...

Another go yesterday at the final cleaning of the front end suspension parts. I sat on the front step and listened to the birds singing and my neighbors entertaining their young nephew while they worked on their flower beds. Once again excellent tunes burst forward from my I-Pod docking station as I cleaned and used a Scotchbrite pad to lightly scuff the surfaces in preparation for paint. There was a wonderful relaxed flow to the work and a sense of connection to the environment and to the 54 year old metal components. I am about 70% done with a desire to be 100% done today. There is interesting variations in surface textures with some components missing large areas of paint while other still have a very satisfactory painted surface that will act as a good foundation for the chassis black paint I will be using. Details. Details. Details.
