The Triumph Roadster was the first new Triumph after World War II. It is the last series production vehicle with a rumble seat. There are two windshields, with the second adding to the comfort of the rear passengers.
This car is one of the few with the original turning signals. They are the trafficators coming out from the side of the car. It also has the original headlight setup, which dips one reflector on low beam, while switching the other light off. The car was nicknamed 'One Eye Monster' at its time.
The car was found, in a field, as a parts car for another restoration. Since the frame was still good, it was decided to restore it to like new condition. In the last two years, the car was driven more than 3400 miles in club driving events and visiting nine shows (including the Meadowbrook Concours d'Elegnace), where it won 13 awards (7 times Best in Show). The worldwide Triumph Roadster Club (based in England with more than 500 members dedicated to this model) awarded the Car of the Year Trophy to this car in 2007.
