Triumph TR7 Graveyard

[Wacky Racer]

Thought you might be interested to see these pics.

At least for the time being. Many of these sorry looking examples will eventually be restored to "as new". (I have no connection whatsoever with the company btw.)

Wow are they still around ?
Both S&S Prep and Robsport were at the forefront of the TR7 TR8 conversions back in the 90's and I used S&S on several occasions. In fact I still have their glossy brochure from many moons ago !

Ahhhh My Eyes..............

Lets hope those monstrosities have crumbled to dust by now.

Sadly not too far off. The TR7 is actually one of the rarest Triumph models these days.

Eyes are fine as I find sunbeds don't agree with Gingers.

I would love to know if my old TR7 reg number XHP 275X is undergoing rest. I sold it with a 3.5 v8i from a Vitesse installed but not running.

It was a very late car built in the last week of production and 76 away from the last ever chassis number. It was Silver Leif metallic.

^ Tap it's details into dvla and see if it still exists? Or, did I mean MID?

I think the guy who purchased it was something to do with Robsport. Hopefully its going to be restored at some point.
