Gas tank. There are a lot of original Triumph parts that are unavailable today.
I have a lot collected over 25 years. Donâ??t let them go to the scrap yard. I
have listed two California TR4A and no interest from you guys. Iâ??m getting
older and my kids will send them to the scrap yard. We should not let this
happen.
