An exceptionally well-presented Mk1 Triumph Stag, retaining the original Triumph 3. 0L V8 engine specification and 4-speed manual gearbox with overdrive.
Since September 2024, the car has undergone extensive mechanical and cosmetic refurbishment, principally undertaken by Stag specialist Paul McLaughlin of Stag Classics, Medstead, Surrey.
Major Mechanical Refurbishment
Reconditioned and refurbished Triumph 3. 0L V8 engine, fitted at 37, 536 miles, with just 4, 361 miles covered since installation. Replacement engine number correctly recorded on the V5C, matching the engine fitted.
Phoenix stainless steel 4-branch exhaust manifolds and link pipes.
Rebuilt differential, correct UJ propshaft and two new rear driveshafts.
Reconditioned steering rack, steering column refurbishment and replacement power steering pipes.
Refurbished and powder-coated front suspension crossmember, new chassis leg cups, track rod ends, top strut mounts, wheel bearings and replacement suspension bushes.
Refurbished rear trailing arms with replacement bushes and mountings.
Complete braking system overhaul, including new master cylinder, servo, callipers, discs, pads, rear drums, shoes, hoses, brake lines and handbrake cable.
Complete replacement front and rear wiring looms, representing a substantial investment in the car’s electrical system.
Replacement radiator and heater hoses, heater matrix, thermostat and gaskets.
Uprated Mk2 alternator, new Exide battery, fuel pump, fuel lines and filter.
Reinstated original-style cooling fan and viscous coupling, with lower fan guard.
Exterior & Interior Improvements
Brand-new Aldridge Trimming mohair soft top, fitted to a refurbished and powder-coated hood frame. (No hard top is included)
Refurbished and newly padded T-bar.
Mk2 alloy wheels fitted with Michelin XAS tyres.
Original Stag steering wheel reinstated.
Period Motorola radio incorporating DAB and Bluetooth connectivity.
New chrome sill trims, coachlines, door mirrors and locks.
Condition
Exceptionally well-presented and carefully maintained throughout. The Saffron Yellow paintwork is in excellent overall condition, with only minor age-related marks consistent with a 54-year-old classic.
The Black Ambla interior is particularly well preserved, with no rips, tears or damage. A very attractive and well-cared-for example, both inside and out.
Throughout my ownership since September 2024, the car has been garaged every night without exception, in a dedicated garage with insulated flooring. Used primarily in fine weather and never driven in snow, on salted roads or exposed to adverse winter conditions.
History & Documentation
Comprehensive history file covering all refurbishment and improvements since September 2024, including receipts and invoices for parts and specialist labour, together with a detailed record of smaller purchases and additional work.
Extensive photographic record of various mechanical work carried out as detailed available as required.
Substantial expenditure has been invested in the car, with particular attention to mechanical reliability, driving characteristics and retaining its original Triumph V8 specification.
MOT valid until July 2027.
