I thought I had my TR8 sold twice, but the import duty to Portugal, then
Canada nixed the deals.  Please email me for photos if you're
interested.  

1980 Triumph TR8 Roadster1980TR8 w/ twin Stromberg carbs (Fuel injected
cars were not asreliable). This is a beautiful, unmodified,
well-preserved original car. 215 cubic-inch aluminum V8. 5-speed, 18,000
miles; original exceptfor brakes, shocks, struts and tires. I installed
new rotors and new rearslave cylinders last year along with new pads and
shoes. Put in new KYBshocks and struts. Five new Dunlop tyres were
installed because theoriginal tires were developing bubbles in the
sidewalls. The top isoriginal and still looks nice, and the paint still
looks very good. It'sposeidon green with tan interior. The interior
looks like new. OriginalAM-FM radio that works. AC doesn't work, nor
does the temp gauge. It hasa pre-oiler device that circulates oil so
that when starting the carafter it's been sitting for a long time, you
have oil pressure. Otherunoriginal feature- prior owner had the bumpers
professionally paintedwith a gloss finish. I've sorted out most of its
problems in the five years I've owned it.Like me, the prior owner kept
it indoors and drove it rarely. I'm sellingit because I only drove it
2,000 miles in the five years I've owned it.$9,500. 707-942-0546, or
email me. A photo can be seen on Sports Car Market magazine site:
