Hi

Does anyone know this car?

Reason being i have a september 68 car and car conversions magazine with an article on TR5 petrol injection using this car.

Just thought if the owner hasnt got a copy u could sell him mine ....the cover price is 3 shillings!

The car is shown as taxed and tested on the dvla

A road test of the same car was featured in the Motor of w/e 4th May 1968. it was also used on a tour of Spain described in an article by Eoin Young in the Autocar of 8th August of the same year. Strangely Triumph provided this press car without overdrive, I would be surprised if a subsequent owner has not fitted this for a greatly enhanced driving experience.

LHP 288F was pre-production built, "off-tools" as the old saying went. CP2 was first down the actual production line. CP1 (LHP 288F) still exists but as to just where it is a veil of silence reigns at present....why, thats another story!
