About CliffClavin’s Garage
My first car
1978 Datsun 510 Wagon, silver, 4 speed, factory a/c. My uncle sold it to me for $10. Ran great, good mileage, could cram 8 folks in it. Meet its end with a Ford F-150 that ran a stop sign.
Car I wish I still had
1987 Volvo 240 Wagon. I could haul anything in that car. Alas, had to get rid of it when I got a new job and needed something to travel long distances in. Found out the guy I sold it too wrecked it not 2 weeks after he bought it from me.
My dream car
Hmmm. Right now it would be a Austin Healey 100S or a Lotus Exige S. Changes weekly.
Car clubs I’m in
AtlantaMINIS (I'm on the steering committee), Volvo C30 Forum, Georgia Triumph Association.

Started the stereo install this weekend. I also got the engine oil changed and everything staged to replace the rear differential oil and seal. Using the OEM paper gasket and some loctite gasket seal to try and prevent future leaks. I will be using Red...
Plans for the TR4a

Filed under: 1967 Triumph TR4A (Tractor)
I have been slowly fixing up the TR since I bought it in October. I have a blog with the work that I have done to it so far here. Planning on changing out all the fluids and sorting out a few electrical demons in the next month or two. All in all it runs...
