1980 Triumph TR8 Convertible

Description

1980 Triumph TR8 RoadsterI have owned over 300 British Cars including; XKE, TR250, TR6s, TR7s, Beardmore Taxi, TR250 plus MGBs, Midgets, 100+ Spitfires, 25 Triumph Stags, London Taxi, Jensen Healey’s, TVR, GT6s, and MY favorite the TR8. I love the driveability and handling of TR8. Only 2,346 were built using the proven powerhouse 3.5 Rover V8 (Based on the Buick 215 v-8). This car has low miles 58K, updated AC to R134, Holley 4 bbl with edelbrock intake manifold. The value of these cars are on the up and they are becoming harder to find. The car was sold as a flood car but the water level did not reach over the rocker panel and no wiring has been affected. I was willing to take the risk on the car based my experiences with TR8s in the past. There was no water in ether the transmission /. diffy gear oil or the engine oil. The clutch pressure was slight bound up due to moisture but was easily freed and works as it should- smoothly. Car runs and drives great. Top is great shape. Car is solid except for the front portions of the front floor pans. Easy fix and panels are readily available. Car is priced to sell
