very nice!
My old neighbor in California races one of those semi-professionally, does all the work in his home garage. He had a bunch of TR7 and even a Triumph motorcycle when I was growing up as well.

Nice looking car. I used to work at a body shop in high school and the guy who owned it had 23 Triumphs. Another guy I know (coincidentally from the same town) has a red TR4 with a Ford 289 engine. RUMBLE!
The kind of dirty that doesn't wash off
