    Will post an article on Jim's car as he has provided a lot of details of the modifications and it's History, Car has been seen on this thread among cars at New Plymouth in 1976, and again at Rotorua in 1980, at AHCCNZ, National Rally's, which I also attended, New Plymouth in the Triumph GT6, and Rotorua in the Triumph TR4A..
