1975 Triumph 66k miles is it a good buy? Sign In

Found this car on the side of the road yesterday for sale:
1975 Triumph 66k miles on it for $3,000
looks in decent shape here's a picture:

Trying to get a new car to replace my mini van since my kids are all in college now.
I'm not sure on any other details just that it's red.

All help is appreciated and if this is in the wrong section my bad, a Mod can move it.

Right spot and welcome.

IMO these cars are a blast an fun but seem to always need something. Not a good daily driver vs plain Jane cars but fun. Knew them brand new with tons of failures that can be dealt with but one wouldn't be my only car!

I agree 100% with Tom.
It's a good buy for a weekend fun car but,not a daily driver.

I don't imagine its cheap to get parts for either.. problem with any vechical that age is it's tired metal and will always need some sort of work here or there to keep it running properly.

Yeah very true.
It's probably like a MG parts are hard to get and if you can they cost alot..
