Could there be a premium value for some good old Coventry dust and dirt for an additional price premium? Some years ago, the Triumph Club of Sweden was the highest bidder on a genuine ex factory brickend I picked up off the site before all the rebuilding started. They encapsulated it in clear acrylic, put it on a nice timber plinth and I believe it’s now the official First Prize in the annual bodywork competition!!!!!

 

Oh, missed opportunities……………… J

  Hi,

  I need to install a lock nut under my shift knob so I can orient the Triumph LOGO straight up. 

  Wow, am I running out of things to do or what?
