I came across this bloke while mooching around on YouTube and been an ex Vitesse and Herald nut years ago, and knowing Uncle Bob was an owner, I thought this would be of interest.
This bloke is brilliant, just wish I knew about him back then.
First video is a time lapse rebuild of a Vitesse, but the second is the start of a complete Vitesse rebuild.
Great videos and commentary, though it's a mate who is doing the commentary :TU:
Take a look at his other videos as well all Triumph related and love the TR6 :yes:
Glad I don't live next to him though :no:

I never took to the Herald; did nothing for me. I liked the TR6 though....

I liked the shape of that model better than the mk3’s 👍🏻 |

It was the sound of that lovely two litre straight six that did it for me..
A mate at work successfully raced a number of Vitesse.

This was my Herald 13/60 which I bought from a bloke in Leicester who had spent quite a bit on it and was lovely to drive :TU: I can't find any piccys of my Vitesse though I have a load which are buried some where in the loft.  |
