Introduction
Darren Rungasamy
Four-seater luxury open motoring with a charismatic V8 soundtrack, a stalwart in the classic British lineup.
Conceived as an upmarket open-top cruiser, Triumph knew a thing or two about balance and poised driving experiences. Their inclination to install a V8 into a graceful Michelotti-penned open-top car, with enough space for four adults and their luggage, with very few direct rivals suggests that Triumph hit upon a piece of marketing genius.
This 1974 MK2 version has had the benefit of cosmetic spruce up, with a documented respray, mechanical and cosmetic improvements and the welcome reinstallation of a V8 Triumph engine to replace a previously installed Ford V6. Well looked after and nicely presented, it comes with an MOT to July 2023 and has only covered ~1,000 miles in the last five years.

Looking at the vido there are a few things:
Some over-spray in places
The right door appears rusty by door trim
cant see how good the dash wood is – appears t have water stains
your observations, please
Overspray? My polishing and detailing may not be up to your standards, but that’s an easy fix. Timber dash is original therefore around the head unit the cut out is for an 8 track which is much larger than modern radios. The in fill could be done better. A facia is easily got, on ebay and the like. I decided to keep the car original but perhaps you may wish to walnut it. There are imperfections on the door.
thanks
Hi sorry does it have the Stag V8 engine fitted or the Ford,
Thanks
John
It’s was fitted with a rebuilt Triumph Stag V8 in 2020
Very interested, I would want to use regularly so must be reliable. Are there any issues that while not needing doing you would have considered doing
john
