This Triumph has been off the road since 1966 and will need full restoration, however it does deserve to be saved and comes with all its original paperwork including buff log book, handbook, service records book and current v5 which is registered on its original number (Non transferable)

So the story with this car is that it bears the chassis number TDB 5652 DL and from records has a build date of 20th September 1951. It was supplied and registered to its first owner in Guildford, Surrey on 1st October 1951 by SF Erskine & Sons Ltd, 24 Commercial Road, Woking, Surrey.

It was then passed to its second owner just 7 months later and remained with them until today (so only 2 owners in 73 years)

This gentleman used it for the following 14 years for touring in Yugoslavia, Ireland and scotland. Surprisingly it had a factory reconditioned engine in July 1956 (tag still present on block). It continued in use until 1966 when play in the steering brought an mot failure.

It was then laid up in the stables for the next 58 years. The owners son carried out a engine rebuild in 1980 fitting new pistons, liners and bearings. It has been started from time to time most recently a few months back apparently, although we have made no attempt to start it.

So it’s condition today is as pictures show. It has rust in the rear wheelarches that has resulted in the wings becoming part detached and also along the mounting area for the running boards.

Chassis as you would expect is fairly sound. It is a major project, so please be clear about this, but it has lovely history and there cannot be many left with effectively one owner from new, it deserves to be saved
