I have a Warwick GT restoration project for sale. Dry stored car for some considerable time (and it has cost me dearly in rent!) One of only 16 known cars in the world, this is a very rare opportunity. The body is in excellent condition considering its age; sporting a bonnet scoop and an unusual (than standard) boot lid. Very little crazing on the shell and the doors closer very well. Bonnet clam is in excellent condition with all the wheel arch edges crisp, not ragged, damaged or cut away.

It is remarkably solid! solid enough that I can jack the car up which is pretty well unheard of on what, I assume, is an original chassis.

Engine is free, non-overdrive box, Salisbury diff; with the one piece front clam lifting forward it very easy to work on. The interior is all complete although some dashboard clocks are missing and the wiring/fuel lines/brakes are incomplete but these are all obtainable from Triumph suppliers/jumblers. Autosparks can supply a new loom, all the front suspension/steering is TR3 with 10 drums on the rear. (although they have been removed to allow it to roll). Rear/side glass in present, front screen is new. In fact, thanks to the Peerless & Warwick Owners Register all the glass is obtainable from Pilkingtons.

Having four seats its a natural progression from a TR for the family man, certainly was for me! In 2ltr form these cars go and handle very well however, it could make a great foundation for a race car as these body shells are far stronger/lighter than the Phase 1, the main shell will lift off the chassis "as one" and the front clam is held on by 4 bolts. It would be easier to convert to V8 at this point if you so wish. This would mean changing the front cross-member but there are templates available to carry out this modification.

V5 in my name. reduced to £5,000 for a quick sale. Based in the Midlands and may be able to help with transportation (extra cost). Give me a call or email for more photos and info etc.
