• Restored to a superb standard in 2000
• Multiple award-winning example, highlighting its exceptional condition.
This rather special Triumph Herald Convertible was first registered on 10th February 1967.The original sales invoice shows the car was supplied by Brook Lane Garage, Ferring-on-Sea, Sussex to W.B. Shaw Esq. of Preston, Sussex. The specification states, “One new Triumph Herald Convertible with heater and disc brakes finished in N. White with red vynide trim and Black Soft Top complete with equipment as per Maker's specification”. All this, including purchase tax, delivery charge ex-works, anti-freeze, number plates, road fund licence, undersealing and four gallons of petrol, cost £763-12s-0d. The Herald stayed within the same family until 1993. In 2000, a comprehensive restoration began aiming for concours standards.
The Triumph was stripped to its bare chassis, with a new unused chassis sourced from a technical college replacing the original. Mechanically, everything was replaced or overhauled, including a new differential and rear suspension swing arm conversion (reducing the infamous Herald wheel tuck under). The original engine was rebuilt and balanced using new pistons and rings, an unleaded cylinder head, and fitted with Spitfire twin SU carburettors and a stainless steel four-branch tubular exhaust manifold. An electronic rev counter has been added, along with a Triumph Spitfire D-Type overdrive gearbox to aid more comfortable cruising. Virtually everything has been overhauled or replaced. The interior is a joy, with a dashboard that may be described as perfect. The hood is easily lowered and neatly covered; importantly, it is also quick to erect. On the road, the Herald performs admirably, keeping up with modern traffic and handling inclines with ease; the overdrive gearbox operates smoothly, making cruising comfortable at speed. The restoration achieved multiple Triumph Sports Six Club International Concours awards: Best in Show (2001), Master Class Winner (2002), Best Herald (2003) and Best Interior (2004). It later won the TSSC South of England Best Herald title in 2008.
Surely this is one of the best Herald Convertibles remaining and is well worth viewing.Consigned by Stewart Banks
