Hey thanks! Yeah the wagon is a lot of fun. I have had it for 8 years, it was my first car. I drove it 500 miles to the mountains with those motorcycle itbs. 1:1 third gear and 4:11s with straight pipes through the winding roads. I have also loaded it up with 5 people, gear, and beer and drove it to the sand dunes 5 hrs away. Wagons are so freaking useful.

Plus, I can haul engines, lumber, welders, and fold down the back seat and sleep in it(I'm 6'4").

It was the most sold TR series Triumph ever. Far surpassing the TR-6. It also had a terrible reputation for build quality and the 2.0L is a disaster of a design(forgive me if you are a dolomite/TR7 guy and like these engines). The TR8 was the v8 model that should have come out first.

That being said, these things were very competitive in rally racing with the rover/buick 3.5l V8.
And the LT-77 5spd gearbox and Salisbury rear end aren't bad either. The rear looks like a carbon copy of a Dana 44.
