Geez Im a sucker I just couldn't pass up this little red convertible.. Much whining from the miss's ..
Tim my like this, I think he has one?
1961 Triumph Herald convertible .. This one is a little different as it has been legally fitted with a 2.5 lt 6 cylinder, everything on this one has been rebuild and had to go through ADR. [Australian design rules]
Drives very well, steering is so tight tho' the brakes should be better, but as the owner said they probably haven't even bedded in yet..Hes said it would not have even done 2000 miles since he built it all.
Just waiting now for the money to clear in his account and I should have it by the weekend
