[TR] Get in line

[DAVID MASSEY]

 Well, it IS a period drive train.  But for my money (especially this kind of money) I would want something more modern.
No word about what diff he is using.  If it is the stock TR6 unit better line up a replacement today.

Especially a 3 speed automatic!  That as a huge mistake made for Stags that ZF transmissions fix
nicely.

Now if it were a 6 or 8 speed ZF to leverage the power curve you would have something there.

Not a lot of specs on that GM V8 lump, is it really a 283 maybe out of an old C2/C3 Corvette that
had a Powerglide 3 speed??

I definitely see the appeal of a Triumph with some more power under the hood and easier to find
parts, but the automatic transmission would be a deal breaker for me.

That is going to be a tough sale.  

Highly customized with a boatload of money poured into it will need the correct person who falls in
love with it at first sight.  

It looks to be a fun toy, but a Triumph in name only so that excludes the people looking for an LBC
experience, and it has too many "tells" to be a sleeper.

For me the tail customization detracts from it that could be implemented with a bit more taste and
finesse - just sayin, not my taste.

Do a full photo and video workup on it with every conceivable detail and information tidbit and put
it on Bring-a-Trailer.
