Since Im not to familiar with all the Triumph's value... my family has 7
Triumphs and I have 4 so far myself and Im only 20 (I like pointing that
out...)
I have a 64 Mk1 (never thought '65 could be a Mk1) and really understand
how rare they are.. considering the Rare Mk1 parts.... for I only bought my
car
for $250 and spend only $3300 +/- on it; I would only take nothing less than 5K.

but depending on the buyer... the Mk1s are/should be the best Spit choice
possible..
If I could afford it; I would be welling to pay up to 8k for a perfect Mk1.
but of course theses days depend on the horse power and speed rather than the
classic styling... I want to see Grills on my cars!! and non of the rubber
bumper stuff...
It is what someone is welling to pay for a antique item that creates its value
right...
like paintings...
