1947 Triumph 1800 roadster, Project car

1947 Triumph 1800 roadster Additional Info:

The 1800 and 2000 roadster were produced soon after WW-II and there was an abundance of aircraft aluminum available and the body metal is aluminum. The front fenders (Called wings in Britain) are steel and quite solid.
I purchased 1 of these from out of state and it was missing a lot of things and I them purchased 3 more locally. I gleaned the best parts form all of them and kept the best one and sold the rest as a lot. A local guy purchased them and later sold them to a restorer in Florida. There is a club for them in England and another small club in the USA. As I recall about 5000 total were produced. The 1800 cc version originally had 4 speed column shift and the later 200 cc version had 3 speed column shift. Stock they are quite sluggish but with modern Tr-4 A engines they perform quite well.
Time got in the way and I never got around to restoring this one but a good friend restored his and has permitted me to use a few pictures of his in my listing so potential buyers can see what the finish product looks like.
I spent a lot of time and money accumulating parts and materials and hate to give up but I am downsizing and selling a couple of my favorite cars. ( my 1940 LaSalle 4 door convertible is on eBay also).
I purchased a TR-4A engine and had it rebuilt by reputable local British car shop and will sell it separately to buyer or on eBay. Some buyers may want to install different drive trains??
I purchased a Toyota transmission adapter kit so I could have 5 speed transmission. Original car was sluggish and had low top end speed. Toyota 5 speeds are 1-1 ratio in 4th gear and essentially 5th gear is an overdrive. Thr 5 speeds can be purchased at salvage yards for under $100 as I recall. I will sell the kit and transmission separately in case buyer is not interested
The pictures do not do the car or parts justice. Restored headlights cost me $1200, instruments $800 and so forth.
I have both the smaller hubcaps and full sized hubcaps and buyer can select either set
Buyer to pick up or arrange for shipping.
Google Triumph roadsters and look at the many different conditions and colors, also look through the website for the club. The club is a lot of help and I purchased many parts from the club and eBay Britain.
At this point is is a pretty straight forward restoration. I even have the slightly curved glass for the windows in the dickey seat. (Rumble seat)
I am having trouble adding pictures and will get some help. This auction includes thousands of dollars worth of parts I have purchased for the restoration, including the headlamps, wiring harness, rear window for convertible top, and so many more. If I can get the pictures in you will have more to look at for consideration. These cars are outstanding, and when I was at a car show with my friends roadster and my hot rod Lil Red Express truck people ignored my beautiful truck to crowd around his roadster. Google them and look at the possibilities, and also last production vehicle with a rumble seat.
