Geoff...interesting stuff!  Hooray for our Down Under Contingent.  Two 
things struck me...no TR4s, and no Spitfires (both popular models here in the 
USA.  Then too...those Dolomite Sprints and sedans (also rare up/over here).  

I've been exposed to these models recently, as they get plenty of attention 
in the Triumph World magazine.  While I've always been more taken with the 
Triumph roadsters like the TR2-6, these are neat little cars.  They can 
really be presented well, and prepared for serious racing.
