Ended up with the axle slightly shifting to the passenger side due to a frame bracket bending, but since i lifted it and it moved it to the driver's side it's now centered without even using an adjustable track bar haha.
Glad that you guys are okay. I was involved in an accident with my work truck at the end of October. Still dealing with the issues with neck and back. 13 physical therapy appointments and my neck has made minimal improvement.

I've been cleaning up the gauges for the Triumph. Here you see them in various stages of repair. I removed all the internals and sandblasted and repainted the insides and outsides of the cases as well as cleaned the gauge faces. Not bad for 45 year old gauges. Name:  20170118_145928_zpsylowj6dp.jpg

Here's the latest on the body. It is scheduled for media blasting the first week of March. I got the rest of the dash and wiring out.

Thanks. What can I say there is something about Green. I'm loving this thing. Doesn't handle tremendously well but boy does it move! I never knew how much I needed air conditioned seats or a heated steering wheel either.

My biggest gripe is for $40k they couldn't make HID's standard... ugh I hate halogens lol.

My son is happy as he can ride in the car no problems now plus he loves green more than me. We showed up at the dealer and they had it waiting inside for me and my son ran right up to it and said can we get this one!? Little did he know that's the one we were coming home in.

It was a great experience.
