"1971 Triumph Stag Convertible�
The Triumph Stag is a 2+2 sports tourer which was sold between 1970 and 1978 by the Triumph Motor Company, styled by Italian designer Giovanni Michelotti.� Envisioned as a luxury sports car, the Stag was designed to compete directly with the Mercedes-Benz SL class models. �All Stags were four-seater convertible coup�s, but for structural rigidity � and to meet proposed American rollover standards of the time � the Stag required a B-pillar ""roll bar"" hoop connected to the windscreen frame by a T-bar. �A body color removable hard top with defrost wires on the rear window, full headliner and lever operated quarter windows was a popular factory option.
For consignment, our owner purchased the car in 1972 as its second owner, and made use of it through graduate school and beyond.� What a fantastic car to have in graduate school!� The mechanicals are all up to date and consignor states if any parts are needed they are readily available as new or rebuilt parts in Philadelphia from a Stag Club which is very active.� This car presents as overall very nice.� Here's to you Mrs. Robinson!
Exterior
A double edged pointed spear like styled grille trimmed in chrome and supporting dual headlights and a triangular orange signal light in either corner leads the way.� A nice shiny bumper with vertical push bars is on below and all this adds up to give the car a unique look.� A center badge of a prancing Stag is noted on the grille. �Steel is very straight, gaps are nicely managed, and it is bathed in red paint which shows nicely and is a factory matching respray with no rust or inclusions but does show some dings and scratches.� The unique feature of this convertible 4 passenger car is the addition of a B pillar just behind the driver's door that becomes the rear base for what is a top structure.� The front support being the windshield surround in polished chrome.� The top structure is black texture coated steel.� This was deemed necessary for structural rigidity for the car and support for the rag top.� The top is back canvas and moves up and down easily by hand.� No T insert panels are necessary or available even as an option.� The top folds neatly down into a space behind the rear bench and a wide chrome trimming surrounds this area of the tonneau covering. �So if it spits and you need to wear your Wellies,� just put the top up and you are ""covered"".� On back the mid 70's Spitfire-esque styling continues with another double pointed edge spear, edged in chrome complete with matching spear shaped taillights that slightly wrap around to the rear quarters.� Another bumper with vertical push bars is nice and sleek and wraps around the quarters as well and a marker light floats just above. �Some very light beginnings of chrome pitting are seen on this bumper. �14-inch cast aluminum wheels are on with a center hub badged with a stag.� Jesus loves you more than you will know, Whoa, whoa, whoa.
Interior
Sleekly styled deep saddle leather door panels sporting sloping downward long armrests and a shiny actuator along with a front mounted pouch greet us upon entry.� Nice high and wide overstuffed luxurious bucket seats with some tuck and roll inserts and smooth bolsters all in the saddle leather, make up the front passenger's chairs.� For the back, a curved and undulating rear bench seat is in and offers up room for two more, albeit tight on the legroom front. �Gold carpeting floods the floors, (I believe this to once be more brown but has lost some of its color and now is gold).� Upfront a walnut veneer wood dash front houses the quintessential black faced Smith's gauges. �There is a gaggle of these circular gauges and air vents are round as well making it look similar to a 747 cockpit. �In the center is a Pioneer AM/FM/Cassette radio, temp sliders with an ash receptacle which dives downward and seamlessly meets up with a console that has a ball topped shift lever and power window toggles. �A wood insert is surrounded by padded black vinyl on the sides.� In front of the passenger is a glovebox and an eyeball vent in the corner. �Overall the dash is slightly dirty and could use a good detailing but fully functional.� Heaven holds a place for those who pray..Hey, hey, hey.
Drivetrain
Looking quite industrial, very clean, and cast metallic we see the 2997cc V8.� It is fed from the top with dual 1 barrel 175CD carbs that are tilted on an angle with wide cast intake tubes snaking their way into the mill.� TRIUMPH badged valve covers and a silver cast air intake covering are also seen. �On the back is a 4 speed manual transmission from the factory.� The rear axle is a 3.70 designation. �All is looking good and clean, no corrosion but slight paint chip off on the shocks tower supports on top.
Undercarriage
The ribbed floor pans and framing is solid.� Dual tubular exhaust is snaking its way through to the back for a dual driver's side exit. �Independent suspension is all around and power front disc brakes are upfront and power drums on back.� Factory stock style mufflers are in the center flanking its way around the driveshaft, floor pans, and X frame.� No rust, just some more paint chips off and even some factory red overspray.
Drive-Ability
A quick starter, smooth idle and taking off is no problem as is running at cruising speed.� Good handling and braking were experienced.� The top goes up and down easily and is in very good like new condition.� I owned a Spitfire and this is like driving a high end version.� Where have you gone Joe DImaggio? our nation turns its lonely eyes to you, Woo, woo, woo.
A very nicely preserved original version of the Stag owned since almost new from our consigner who cared for the car, and alway had it inspected and maintained.� �Snap it up! And despite its name it can be for the female population too!
