Thanks for the list Julian - I am actually a member of the TSSC but I appear 
to have mislaid my handbook giving the details of Triumph repair specialists.
The firm I have got prices from so far is Pegasus Garage in Kent - they want
about 3500 pounds to rebuild the body and give it a half decent respray - I'll
be getting a few more quotes and then I'll see what I can afford.


In the UK the "yeast tar" is called Marmite and I think this is the same stuff
as the Australian Vegemite.

I personally like the stuff, especially on toast - it also adds a lovely savoury
flavour to gravies and casseroles. My wife on the other hand cannot abide the
stuff and can detect when I've added the slightest amount to cooking. 

We also have Weetabix over here which are biscuits made of compressed wheat 
flakes - I can honestly say I prefer the American style breakfast of pancakes
and maple syrup!

Andy
