Club Triumph – Celebrating 60 Years
Club Triumph returns to the show to mark its 60th anniversary with a cracking line-up of cars and live, hands-on restoration work across the weekend.
Cars on display:
-
1978 Triumph Dolomite 1500 HL (Manual O/D) – Finished in yellow and fully restored from what was once a rusty wreck known as “The Flying Log”. A well-known club car that’s completed seven Round Britain Reliability Runs – that’s over 14,000 miles of hard-earned proof it’s built to be driven.
-
1950s Triumph Roadster Rolling Chassis – Now fitted with a V8 and undergoing a full body-off restoration.
-
Triumph Spitfire Mk4 1300 – A full home restoration, carried out by a dedicated owner.
-
1972 Triumph 2000 Mk2 – A proper daily driver, owned and used by a young, enthusiastic member of the club.
