Hi, I'm from the Rochester NY area and just picked up a pile of A10 parts...I'm experienced with Triumphs and built an A10 20 years ago but made the mistake of selling it....Still sorting through pile and for sure will have a few questions.....Tony

G'day Tony,
Good of you to join us.
So your versed in twisting whit/bs spanners. That's usually the first hurdle for state siders (or anyone under 50)!
Good luck with it and please put up some photo's.
Cheers

I'm somewhat over 50, hell, I'm somewhat over 70.
. My Triumph is a 79 so none of that crazy British threads...But there's some Whitworth wrenches around here somewhere..

Tony,
Notice you're from Rochester. Not that it's around the corner from you, but I bought my barn-find '57 A7 from a guy in De Kalb, New York. Seems about as far upstate NY as you can get.
