Post-War Other Triumph Italia 2000 GT's

Share this page

Well as my old Daddy would say..."a day late and a dollar short". Think I missed the boat on these along with 100M's , early XKE's and a number of other cars that are now TOP SHELF.
Still want to at least see one in person and hope to make the 2014 Gathering in NC where some should be.
 
I saw an unrestored one on a flatbed car-hauler truck on the surface streets in San Luis Obispo, CA a month or to ago. Perhaps on its way to or from XKs Unlimited. The restored red one at Triumphest here a few years ago was a delight. Because of the narrow Triumph chassis, the Italia is more slender than a similar body style would be on an Italian chassis, and all the better for it - especially with Dunlop wires.

What's a tax refund?
Perhaps I'll see an Italia tomorrow, at the Queen's English Show at Woodley Park in Van Nuys...

Well, no Italias this year. Jay Leno did bring a Bristol, though, never seen one before....
 
Saw the red one yesterday at the Carlisle Import Show. That is one fine looking automobile.





 
Here we go again! I can't afford one but would sure like to have one. Can't wait till I see one in person and hope it is a restored one like the Red one above.

Thanks for posting the pictures,
Irene
 
I think we are gonna have to "Satisfy" Irene's Italia fixation somehow.
 
Nice! So what's the story? Where did you find it and how did it end up with so few miles on it after all this time?

Really enjoyed going through your photos...and as Scott asked, tell us more.
 
Really enjoyed your photos. How 'bout starting a new thread on this? We're eager (to say the least) to hear how you found the Italia!
