I know a plumber would have done it much faster Craig, but imagine the satisfaction I got when I stood back and admired my handywork!
If you intend to leave it like that, then I strongly recommend you box it in!

Wow.
You must get some serious cred if you turn up to school in that!

I do love a classic brit - one of my mate's got a very large collection of Broughs. However, when Bloor decided to create bikes using the Japanese model, they started to get some serious performance. I've got a 1988 ZX10 - about 140bhp, 0-60 is a nad over 3 secs, and 170mph top speed. Four years earlier Triumph were still flogging the 43bhp T140....

If you intend to leave it like that, then I strongly recommend you box it in!  Just finishing off a towel rail whilst on a roll! If anyone needs help with plumbing PM me. ![[Linked Image]](https://www.tm-img.com/images/2020/03/27/radiator-fail.md.png)

I wish I'd never sold my T140V. However, at the time I needed something more reliable, that didn't oil my boots every trip. Spent the next 18 years with an R65 then an R100RT.

Oh, my bad, it's the photo angle I guess. Great work.
Everyone loves a Morgan. Even me, unless it's broken again.
