Up for auction is a 1979 Triumph TR7. I bought the car while on vacation in San Diego and had it shipped backed to Ohio. The car runs, rides and drives great. It starts right up and idles like it should. It was a blast on the curvy roads of Rancho Santa Fe. The transmission shifts as it should and has a great old nimble sports car feel. Being a California car it is rust free. There's no suspension noise or brake pulsation. It's a very complete car. The only thing missing is the 7 decal on the back and the two small front fender decals...they can be found on eBay.The radio is newer and it has two new speakers in the trunk that I haven't installed yet. The top is in good shape but the back plastic window is foggy. There is a car cover in the trunk too. The car has had one repaint and it looks very nice. There's no big scratches or dings. Sold on a clean Ohio title with actual miles. Below is the specs...
