Original Triumph Stag

Book excerpt: This complete, full-color owner's, buyer's and restorer's guide is replete with original specifications, mechanical and body changes, paint and trim schemes and original options for all Triumph Stags ever built from 1970 through 1977. These four-seat convertibles were blessed with great looks and a new V-8. Introduced as it was, however, during British Leland's darkest hour, the Stag was never fully developed and, as such, presented owners with a host of problems. In the years since, however, a mini industry has sprung up to support those owners and, in the process, eliminate the quirks traditionally associated with the Stag.
