Triumph TR3- Undercarriage Prep Started

Other priorities (work,travel, hiking, bicycle riding, gardening and other distractions) have "trumped" working on my TR this summer so not much progress to report for the last few months. The weather is changing rapidly (getting cooler) and I can see myself out in the garage more in the near future...

Some updates:

1. the body is now tilted on it's side so I can access the undercarriage for rust removal. primer and finish coat. The work got started on Thursday (3-1/2 hours spent) and I have made some good progress.

2. Yesterday I did some work on some floor board flange repair(and replacement) and some touch up on the rear valance patch panels I installed earlier in the year. (another 3 hours or so)

A fellow at work suggested I really push the body work portion of the rebuild and get it handled before winter sets in. Mechanical work and reassembly is fine in the confined space of a heated garage but bodywork is another issue (from a toxicity perspective) so that is my focus right now through the next month. I want to have the undercarriage and engine bay painted so I can start the re-assembly in an earnest fashion...
