rhino_mac Posted December 23, 2015 Report Share Posted December 23, 2015 Try posting up on Club Triumphs forum as well if you haven't already - they seem to support Vitesse owners pretty well. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

rhino_mac Posted December 23, 2015 Report Share Posted December 23, 2015 TSSC also have a Facebook page it might be worth posting up on too. They might be regional so you'll have to search them all out. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Gary Flinn Posted December 24, 2015 Report Share Posted December 24, 2015 (edited) Harry Do you have any photographs of the Car? I take it with it being a 1970 Car it should be either 'H' or 'J' Registered. Signal Red is a very popular colour for the Vitesse, do you know if the Car was purchased new by your father, if so and it was registered in Coventry that will give you a bit of clue with the registration. Dave Rumens the TSSC Vitesse secretary may be able to help, this is his E-Mail address: dave.rumens@btinternet.com Hope you find it.

harrytr5 Posted December 24, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 24, 2015 Thanks for that info Gary and I will try that route.I am sure my Dad would have taken photo,s of his Vitesse but due to our fractured family no chance whats so ever. I know when it was sold to a young guy in Coventry who had an accident in it so the story probably ended there. Did not mean to shout John just copied it from my files. Have a good Christmas all.
