Friends of Triumph Honor Joe and Dottie Richards In 1980 Joe Richards purchased TR2 TS1 LO and subsequently spent 18 years of his life meticulously restoring the first TR2. Targeted by the UK at the North America market, it featured LHD and Overdrive. This merits our attention and respect, as Joe and his family preserved an important part of our Triumph Racing Heritage. The TR2 was the first low cost performance sports car that enabled the rapid growth of our sport in North America. Hill, Gurney, Kastner, and many more talented racers started their careers with TR2s and TR3s. Please review the following link that contains pictures of how the UK Honored the Richards in 2003 for the 50th Anniversary of the marque. TS1 LO Returns Home to Britain TS1 has been sold to Phillip Hoopes, an eye surgeon, British car collector from Sandy, Utah, near Salt Lake City. He is building an all-underground parking/garage facility to house his British car collection. It seems like the ideal location for TS1 in that high desert, dry environment. Phil is planning to show TS1 at the 40th Utah Concours on August 27th. It will be a featured display and will be surrounded by his 7 other British cars (2 MGAs, 2 TR3s, 2 Austin Healeys, and the 54 MGTF). |

Dear TRA Members:
increasingly costly. On the other hand, the decision to make the manual available on-line will allow members who purchased years
ago to access the most recent version. Also hopefully, new addenda
will be encouraged if some of the pain associated with the production
are removed. John Gabel TRA Chief Judge Download the TR2/3 TRA Judging Standards and Restoration Guidelines Manual!
