Triumph Stag for sale

Envisioned as a luxury sports car. the Triumph Stag was designed to compete directly with the Mercedes-Benz SL class models. All Stags were four-seater convertible coupés. but for structural rigidity – and to meet new American rollover standards of the time – the Stag required a B-pillar "roll bar" hoop connected to the windscreen frame by a T-bar. A removable hardtop was a popular factory option for the early Stags. and was later supplied as a standard fitment.

The car started as a styling experiment cut and shaped from a 1963–4 Triumph 2000 pre-production saloon. which had also been styled by Michelotti. and loaned to him by Harry Webster. Director of Engineering at Triumph. Their agreement was that if Webster liked the design. Triumph could use the prototype as the basis of a new Triumph model. Harry Webster. who was a long time friend of Giovanni Michelotti. whom he called "Micho". loved the design and took the prototype back to England. The end result. a two-door drop head (convertible). had little in common with the styling of its progenitor 2000. but retained the suspension and drive line. Triumph liked the Michelotti design so much that they propagated the styling lines of the Stag into the new T2000/T2500 saloon and estate model lines of the 1970s.

This is a superb usable classic that has had lots of loving care from its previous owners. it comes with a very large service file with lots of detailed service and restoration bills. also comes with its hard top roof for the winter months and a purpose built stand to place the roof on when removed from the car. The bodywork is in very nice condition with a small amount of paint needed in some places. Its interior is in superb condition for a car of this age and really needs no work. soft top is fairly new and in good allround condition.
