Description
what I know about this car, original Uk early car, I have an early green logbook and V5 still on its original reg, car when new was triumph light blue , genuinely unused since 1975 when it was painted Magenta! , I purchased it in about 2006 it was all complete and assembled with excellent gaps, engine had locked in long storage, all original equipment with factory overdrive, I did nothing with it and eventually a friend of mine purchased it from me in 2016 , he started to restore by removing panels and body, stripping engine , interior etc, engine checked needed new pistons/ liners, crank all original size and perfect, personally I would have rebuilt the engine had it running and driving then restored as necessary as it was a straight car good interior etc but needing body/ paint, due to ill health car then stood, I eventually took it back in a swap for a useable classic , before I took delivery body was put back on and loosely panelled for transport and that is how it is now, again still too busy and am putting it up for sale , its not a rotten car, does have some strong historic repairs to original floor edge etc new sills tack fitted before lay up in 75 do need properly welding , doors / front wings / bonnet / boot excellent, rear wings and deck need new edges, pictures show it after me receiving it back, all there with windscreen still in excellent frame, hood frame with new hood , orig steering wheel , painted dash, etc etc great chance for realistic enthusiast to restore, please no dreamers as not desperate to let go, thanks. might consider a sensible p/ x etc
