Went to see this movie, really enjoyed it.? The opening scene in Ken 
Miles' shop and his little speech on British sports cars was great!? 
Tried to find a clip of it, no luck so far.

You'll just have to go see it for yourselves, I guess.

A decent price for a rather rare Triumph.? I'm guessing with the head 
gasket issue, driving it from California to Utah might not be the way to go.

Hi Everyone,

 ???? ?I have to let 2 of my 4 British cars go. The first is my 1952 
Triumph Renown Saloon.

 ???? Here is a youtube video I made yesterday.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=shmEkHD8RpE&t=31s

 ? ???Here is the Craigslist posting:

https://losangeles.craigslist.org/ant/cto/d/tehachapi-1952-triumph-renown-tr3-tr4/7082477839.html

 ???? The car is priced for a quick sale.

 ??? ?The car has 46,785 original miles.

 ???? The brakes were rebuilt top to bottom within the last 1000 miles 
or so. Sleeved master cylinder, all new wheel cylinders. It uses MG TD 
brakes. The fuel system is untouched and never a problem. Same with the 
cooling system.

 ???? The current steering box has lots of play. I have a rebuilt 
steering box (uninstalled)? that I sourced from a parts car in the UK. I 
had it rebuilt by a pre-war steering specialist in England before he 
retired. The TROC (Renown club) has written instructions on how to 
change out the steering box as this is a common problem. I have a 
printed copy of the instructions.

 ???? The tires have about 2,000 miles on them.

 ???? I?ve driven this car to work many times. It is about 34 miles each 
way.

 ???? I have new rubber treads that go on the running boards.

 ???? All electrical works.

 ???? I got an overdrive transmission from a car being broken in 
England. It might be the last one on the planet. Renowns were the first 
car to have a Laycock de Normanville OD.

 ???? I have an original temperature gauge. It is unobtanium.

 ???? This car has one big problem. This is reflected in the price.? I 
have started getting water in the oil and the block is getting 
pressurized, blowing oil past the rear seal. It probably has a blown 
head gasket. If I was going to keep the car, I would just go completely 
through the engine and install the extra OD trans that comes with this 
car. If you can do a TR3 or 4 engine, this will all look familiar. The 
short block uses all TR3 mechanicals and the head parts & carburetor 
parts are available from morgan-spares.com. I have a 1953 Morgan +4 and 
the Renown has the identical engine.

 ? ???It?s a good ?dry? car.

 ???? If the oil leak were fixed then you could just enjoy the car as 
is. It was a good driver before the oil/water thing raised its head.
