Looks lovely. [:D]

I've never seen a Triton Green wedge here in Australia but am beginning to like this colour a lot.

Was it only used on Solihull built cars?

I don't think we got many (if any) of these down under.

It was available from 1980 on so conceivably could be Canley cars as well.

Looks even good on a FHC [8D]
Shame you sold the car.

You'd need a very big garage!

I just want 4, or maybe 5:
- Cavalry Blue
- British Racing Green
- Inca
- Platinum Silver

The 5th in competition colours, but can't decide between early White/Blue/Red and later Red/White/Blue.

Addendum: Triton Green is startin to creep up the list tho. [:0]

For the 1981s it would be this top 5
1-Triton Green
2-Aran Beige
3-Calvary Blue
4-Borduex Red
5-Pharoah Gold

For pre 1981 it would be
1-Astral Blue
2-Tara Green
3-French Blue
4-White
5-Pageant Blue

Well, you're up to 10 Michael.

You might as well go the whole hog and have 15 wedges:
7 x TR7
8 x TR8

So on top of your list let's add the 4 competition best variants:
- BL White/Blue/Red FHC in Sprint
- BL Red/White/Blue FHC in V8
- Group 44 FHC
- Huffaker TR7 Roadster (in whatever the colours the sponsors demand)

That only leaves one more to choose, to suit personal taste!

[V8Wedgehead]

Well I have owned over 40 TR7s and 6 TR8s so I had almost all of the typical colors for 1976-1980.

The only Solihull car I ever saw here in Oz was in a photo in a newspaper, with former footballer (now passed on I believe) Trevor Barker, standing next to it. The caption made some cheesy wordplay regarding "Barker's new Triumph".

This was when I was still in primary school. I used to see 7's around a fair but then (admitedly many with one headlamp permanently up) and from that age I WANTED ONE!!!

[trv8]

Two would be enough for me too....
Group 44 [}:)]
Huffaker [}:)]
One for the morning blast, and one for the afternoon blast [}:)] [:D].
