I am pursuing the creation of a sixties Triumph Herald. Nearly unknown in the USA.. I had one here in the late 60s. Loved the car handling and packaging. Hated very poor British parts quality and design blunders..plus lousy service and support which killed off the at one time very popular British car market in the USA.
My resurrected one will contain custom wiring and near total elimination of English electricals. ( hated Lucas..bad in 60s..bad now..My 60s Mercedes and VWs had quality Bosch parts..).. It will look original. But be 100% reliable and durable. And not cost a fortune to do this. It will operate well in 100 degree F heat and hot and humid traffic as in LA..and start right up at 0 degrees F. in the Rockies. Cheap American compact cars could do this in the 60s..Ford Falcon for example. Spitfires..and Heralds and TRs could not. and neither could As and Spridgets. Lucas points burned up fast, American GM Chevy points didn't. All this will be corrected with many still great American car parts available. Such as US made high performance electric fuel pumps..radiators..alternators. It will be a fun voyage. Rule Britannia !!
