"35 mpg, but fast, quick, and nimble when you want it."
Brenda and I met Larry at Triumphest 2012 in Flagstaff Az. We talked with him for awhile about his conversion. His ride is very nice and well setup. I'm glad it is listed here for it is worthy BV8 material. I like the idea of MGB pull door openers!! I like the looks and to me a better mechanical door pull than the original Triumph pull handle. We also saw his ride at Triumphest 2013 too.
Hot damn!! Now I have to get my car painted and on the road. My car will be a near replica of this car the only difference being is that mine is a 76. My car will be red and will most likely have Konig Rewinds on it.
Here is a shot of the engine bay.

the gauges are Dolphin , we have used them a lot. They are simple to use and they also have the Shark line that look fantastic.

I just found this cool you tube video on the man who did Larry's car. Bill does very nice work, check out a RHD TR6 that is going to a customer in England.
