I built this as an English Hot Rod to go vintage racing. Mechanically this car is Triumph TR4, frame, tub, engine, suspension, and drive line is all Triumph. Street legal titled and licensed as a 1962 Triumph TR4. The build was finished in 2017 and raced once in the Kastner Cup here in Illinois. Since then the car has been used on the street for shows, and club events.
