Hi Raymond,
I also have a TR-4, but I do belong to my local club. Maybe it's just
because we're the oldest Triumph club in the country (42 Years), but I've
found it an invaluable source of parts and support. Just to list a few...
Tranny..........Way under market value
Seat covers.....free
Door pannels....free
wire wheels.....trade for some minor items
winshield.......same as above
These are just a few of the material items I've aquired from other club
members over the years. The real benefit of belonging to your local club is
the advantage of collective wisdom. Sure the list is great, but these guys
can come over to your garage when you need an extra pair of hands.
If you have a local club join it, you'll be glad you did.

I'm sure that I'm not the only one, but the only 'club' I belong to (at the
moment anyway) is this mailing list. My reason? I can either spend my $$$
on
club dues, or on getting my TR4A rebuilt. Once I have finished the rebuild,
I
may join the local club (unless I have aquired a Stag for my wife that needs
a
rebuild also)
So how many others are in the same boat?
