So Ive had 2 Triumphs for a few years now, And Im finally going to put them back on the track...

First is a TR-2 (I believe) Special. with a full aluminium Body and Judson Supercharger.
Before I got it many parts had been robbed or misplaced, so figuring out exactly what I have and which way to go with it is Just starting.

Second is a 1969 Spitfire (former hill climb car) I bought it as a parts car for a customers car thinking there was very little left good with it. (was purchased at a kidney foundation donation). I got her home and tinkered on her a little bit and it runs and drives great... So doing some body work and back out she will go.

Hope I can get some help for these cars I know so little about...
 
Welcome to the BCF Cutlassboy68! You've come to the right place.

Sounds as if you have two interesting projects there - particularly the all-alloy TR2 - and some pics would be great.

You mentioned a "customer car" - do you repair and/or restore cars as a business?

You mention it has an aluminium body! Could it be a Swallow Doretti?

I use to, but got tired of chasing people down and taking their cars when they didnt have the money. Along with my son having heart surgery I shut down my shop and found a different job. I know work with Human Resources to help them make their employees greater.

Apbos, No it is not a Swallow Doretti, it has no doors nor does it really resemble a triumph, more appears like a Lotus 7.
