You can drive this car and think about the next project: brake upgrade? Rebuild the suspension again? Some tinkering to complete to it would be a good match for a DIY kind of owner. I’ve always told people: Triumph owners need to spend one Saturday morning a month under the car with a spanner in their hands. If you don’t know what a spanner is, don’t buy this car.
