Triumph Vitesse convertible 2.0 (currently under restoration, totally rebuilt engine and gearbox, full respray, etc etc, just needs to be put back together now) Sorry for the terrible picture, will take better ones when it's actually out of the garage.

It's had a full respray so you pile loads of stuff on top of it?!

That photo was before the respray
. Anything I put on top of it now always has a mat/some card underneath it.

haha yeah, the boot was a replacement part so looked pretty good pre-respray, but all around the edges of the panels, especially around the front area, there was quite a lot of rust and scratches, so I had it resprayed.Oh right, the paint looks pretty good in that photo, that's why I thought you were a madman

Some recent ones of my 182 having had some Eibach Sportline springs fitted today. A little drop to fill the arches nicely, and the handling is noticeably better
Sorry this is a bit picture heavy, I went a bit OTT!

Here is my '67 Triumph GT6 Mk 1. Had it about 2 months now. Still needs a bit doing to it (fixing the horn, putting in a radio and speaker). Other than that it runs perfectly 
This is my first classic car so i didn't really know what to expect when driving it for the first time. Non servo assisted breaks take some getting used to but it is brilliant fun to drive. It is surprisingly nippy for a car of its age. Handling is good however due to the swing axle suspension on the rear it is very prone to lift off over-steer. I haven't experienced this yet and I don't really want to on the road. Anyway, here are some pics:

Triumphs are awesome. AM a massive fan of the spitfires.
