About my ride

The car is a 1978 Triumph 2500S. It's similar to my other car, the Dolomite, except at this stage, Triumph swapped the front and rear end of the Dolomite off, and used those of the Stag. With this improvement also came power steering (Which is in excellent condition concidering age), and a beefy six cylinder engine. I plan to put a pod filter on this one, with some chrome 3" piping and blue buffets, Also The currently brand new exhaust system is going to be fattened out for a louder deeper note. Otherwise, basic sound system which I will give details on at a later date.

Pictures are from a few days back. the car is now fully sprayed. Will upload more photos at a l8r date.

ahh hey, I didn't notice this car. The display pic that's shown is the warning sign and I thought it was an unfinished gallery. The flame design looks very professional, did you guys use your own stencils? another question, how is the engine on your GTS? Do you notice alot of power loss when the km stack up? I have an 82 datsun, but I think that's an unfair comparison as it has never been serviced. peace.
