1979 Triumph Drop Head
You
are bidding on a mostly stock 1979 Triumph TR-7 roadster with 85, 500 actual
miles that is in great drivable shape. I
have owned this car for 14 years and it has been my baby. Love driving it. However, it’s time to let it go as age and
health has caught up with me.
The
car had been in storage for approximately 10 years before being purchased by a
fellow who gave it a lot of TLC and spent over $8, 000 to have a reputable
garage perform the work. I have all the
receipts.
The
list of new parts: duel weber
carburetors, convertible top, 4 gas shocks, 4 tire and front-end alignment, starter, alternator, coil, clutch master cylinder, spin-on oil filter, floor
mats, front disc brake pads and rotors, rear brake shoes, catalytic converter
with complete stainless steel exhaust, tie rod ends, electric engine cooling
fan, thermostat, hoses, radiator cap, sparkplug wires, fuel sending unit, upper
and lower rear suspension bushings, suspension bumpers, head gasket, head
bolts, front wheel bearing, battery, headlight switch.
The
head was removed, shaved slightly, as it was not warped and reinstalled with
new head bolts. Compression was 145 lbs
in all 4 cylinders. The valves were adjusted
also.
The
car is rust free. The paint appears to
be original with the type of defects you would expect on a 38 year old
car. However, you can see from the pix
that it still looks nice. There are no
cracks in the dash. All the glass is
good. The back-up lights, interior
lights, and windshield wipers work. The
seats are good and have been recovered. The radio was replaced with a stereo radio/CD player with new speakers
in the doors. The clock does not work, but a new one is included. The front end has slight vibration at 50 mph.
The
car never sat outside! It has always been
garaged with a cover. The cover is included.
I
also have some spare parts that will be included. This is not a show car…it’s a daily driver.
Terms: The car is offered ‘as is, where is’ no
warranty expressed or implied. I accept
Pay Pal or cash.
The
car is located in Fort Myers, Florida.
