1979 Triumph TR7

Automobiles

In early 1979 Triumph belatedly introduced a convertible version, called the TR7 drophead coupe, which first went on sale in the US. In early 1979 a joint MG Triumph project to produce a new sports car based on the TR7 was started under the name Project Broadside, which was cancelled later in 1979 owing to a lack of funding. The TR7 was built at Canley, Coventry, in 1979. The convertible was long awaited.
