1971 Vitesse Mk 2 Convertible Body Off Restoration For Sale

Reluctantly for sale is my Triumph Vitesse Convertible Mk2 as we are moving to Spain.
This vehicle has been the subject of a recent body off nut and bolt restoration to the highest of standards. Every piece of rust from the original panels has been cut out and replaced, or brand new panels used where this was not practical. The bodywork has been taken down to bare metal, primed and resprayed.
The suspension and running gear has been completely rebuilt, and all parts sand blasted and painted, every nut bolt and bush replaced where needed.
The gearbox and differential have been rebuilt, new clutch fitted. Overdrive on three gears.
Brand new high quality hood fitted.
The car comes with the original Rostyle wheels.
The two litre engine has been rebuilt and is to the original specification with twin Strombergs, although the head has been gas flowed. Brake hoses are high quality braided upgrades.
Mk 2 Convertibles are arguably the most sought after Vitesse and are becoming increasingly rare. This one is of a standard almost impossible to find at this price, and should be a sound investment which can also be enjoyed in Summer Months.

Gears and clutch seem fine. Brakes untested and will need servicing. Rust at bottom of doors otherwise all pretty clean. Stored in dry ...
