Rebuild it Tim.  We need more Triumph race cars. 

And hurry, because the 2018 Kastner Cup is in 41 days. Have you entered that Group 44 rebuild yet - or do you want me to take care of it?   You can still hurry and make it and what a story for ClassicMotorsports......

I think the bigger question is: Is the former Group 44 car strapped on top of the red car with two roll bars supporting it?

Obviously there is no drive train but I can’t imagine that being very stable.

Interesting

Answers-
1- Anything can be saved
2- YES!
3- That's the tough one to answer, with no original parts remaining, it would pretty much be a "recreation".

Subject: [Fot] Group 44 car found

And on another note, two more TR3s have just come into my life. Bill Emery has passed his late father’s two cars on to me, thinking I might be a good caretaker for them.

After talking to Bill and Bob Tullius, and reading through his dad’s correspondence I am convinced one of the cars, (the very rough yellow one) is the Group 44 car that Bob Tullius built for Donna Mae Mims to race in the 1965. I have also found the original red paint and pink paint on the car.

So this brings up some interesting ethical and technical conversations… (also lots to write about in Classic Motorsports). Can this car be saved? Should it be saved? If you re-body some, or all of it, have you really saved it? While I know, from correspondence that some of the Group 44 parts are on the red car, much of the Group 44 stuff is long gone.
