That lady is so nice! She is like like one of my aunt's, here in ENGLAND! Hers sounds like a really lovely family that all enjoyed their marvellous car! I came to the conclusion about 2 years ago, that Triumph was one of the Best companies. In those days, cars didn't just all look the same, they had the confidence to "go their own way", and you can see that that endlessly, Triumph were ALWAYS able to find ways to improve the performance of their models! Also, I learned from this video that the TR6 actually IS a 6 - that is not just by name but really a 6 cylinder! And it's American bumpers with the larger over riders change the look even more than the Tr4/TR5 models, together with the facelift front end.That really did make the car, in my view, what a sports car should look like - something captured by the later rubber bumpers MGB! And the stag has such a beautiful colour! Once again Triumph "triumphed" because I love ALL their colours, which have never been rivalled!. I also noticed that the red triumph featured a more vintage "world globe" badge on the hood, that used to be Triumph' s emblem earlier on.Well done! And I'm glad the 53 Ford never had its ENGINE changed, because I love the sound it makes! All in all, "car heaven for me!" Oh, yes, I forgot to mention being such a Studebaker fan - so there was something for me in that way as well! "America from my sofa" , via this video.!I wish I was there, to see both my favourite Americana cars, and favourite English cars! By the way, I don't think getting parts for Triumphs would be a problem at all, if you get them from England.Ask the Triumph Owners Club! But I mean the owners club in Great Britain! Look them up on the internet! Take care. Nygel Miller
I almost melted at the first sight of that station wagon. What a sweet car! It is in a beautiful color and love that it still has the straight six. Kudos to you for this channel. I love every new episode.
I'm getting the itch to get my 1969 TR6 (68 build) running again. Had it for 25 years, haven't run it in 14. Lucky enough to have factory hard top too. It's a beautiful car.
Thanks for getting back in the road Tom. The channel kept us going through the pandemic. Oddly enough I am watching you unearth Triumphs, whilst working on my Triumph Bonneville. I am adding a bag to carry my lap top and work gear as the Porsche Macan is in the shop again! New cars … 🙁. The old bike never lets me down!
Actually, we had a quite "sensible" looking science teacher, here in ENGLAND, who kept his wide - apart - striped "chalk stripe" suits so long, they came back in fashion! Then the outwardly-serious science master amazed everyone, when he changed his sedate saloon/sedan car for a sporty Triumph Stag!
We need a jeeps in the barn book! We did not originally plan to film the jeeps and i wish i could have pulled them out of the garage to show them better. The 46 (tan willys, we call it TILLY) has original pto, diamond plate driver's side step, chaff guard on radiator and rear seat. The 45, while uber rare, was an advanced cancer patient and required a frame off restoration. I mentioned it had an industrial motor, but i do have a period correct 45 head that i will eventually install.
@@plantertrey The green jeep was done 2007 to 2009 ish and i really wish i had taken video. I have lots of non digital pictures! I hired a top notch body man to be the project engineer and he was hired to work on a monster build of a cherokee xj for little earnhardt ( we live in the center of the nascar world). I think i have a pic somewhere of the two sitting side by side.....Jeep on!
Great video! In high school I drove Dad's 53 Desoto that he bought new and kept until 69. Looked a lot like that 53 Ford. The car I learned to drive was old Jeep a lot like those. No top, kept outside, real rough. The first car I bought was a 69 Triumph Spitfire in 1970. Now I get those same thrills with my 2001 Miata!
Tom, my 1st car was a 54 Ford Customline, 4 door, V8, auto......dark blue. Bought in 1963 for $150. You're so right, people today can't fathom buying a car for $100-$200. I had to finance 2/3's of the car thru my uncle who I was working for while in high school...pumped a lot of gas, checked a lot of oil and cleaned a lot of windshields to pay that 54 off! Love your wagon and glad you kept it original.....Best of luck
My friend had a stag the same colour on a 74 plate UK, from new and emigrated to the states in the 80,s but kept the car, he returned home to coventry England every year to see his dad, on his last visit the car was stolen, we always loved to hear that car coming down the road, there is no sound like the stag, he never found the car, 40yrs plus owner from new, lovely car
While living in Burlington Ontario Canada I drove my 1974 TR-6 as my daily driver. I had a hardtop for it that I used in the winter. I completely restored it in the early 90s with a friend of mine who was the local Triumph dealer. When Triumph went under he had a treasure trove of new parts so rebuilding the car was a lot easier than it should have been. I took it to Newport Beach Calif when I was transferred there for business. That was the perfect place to own a TR-6. They are good runners once you get them properly sorted. I had the overdrive with it so keeping up with California traffic was easy. My dream car is a 1963 Avanti so this video checked a few of my boxes LOL
Hey Tom, Thats just a Triumph TR-4 thats a TR-4 A with IRS. I forget what the A was, but i seem to remember the IRS was Independent Rear Suspension. A friend in High School bought one (used) with the same options, but also had the targa (the rear window stayed in place, while the center top could be removed) option. He (we ,i went with him) bought the Triumph because he liked the looks ( and drive)of my 1967 Triumph Hearld "Sports" 1200. Thanks for the memories, keep up the great channel. Ken
NC is a funny place- Billy Eubanks lives near my Pittsboro property. I had the GT350 out and was filling up in Sanford (near the Pfizer campus) and a Hemi Daytona pulls in. Guy & I start talking and it has parts that Bobby Isaac gave the man (you could tell they were a little different & it was orange with no vinyl top, 71 on the doors) the pieces. Love the TR-4 lady, reminds me of many of the folks I deal with here. Crazy fun here in NC
I started driving a 1959 station wagon with a 283 as a junior in high school in 1974. I fixed it up (it didn't run when I got it) cleaned her up and started buying and selling cars like crazy. In 74 it didn't seem like a cool car then but I wish I had it now. Matter of fact I wish I had several of those cars now... ah well. You made a good choice... she's a beauty
Great show. The Ford Wagon is a gem. The Triumphs were cool. Should have kept my 1974 TR6, it was white with the 4 speed. Bought it in 1983 and sold it in 1992. 😎👍🇨🇦
Tom your wagon is awesome. I love the weird stuff (plain jane) the big HP stuff is fine and all but this is a beauty.... 3 on the tree, Dog dish caps, straight 6 and a wagon..... love it
My most favorite Triumph is the TR6, love the lines. However, the Jeep CJs caught my eye, especially the one with the power takeoff. In 1947, Rover in the UK, developed the Series 1 with a power takeoff that went under the body and through the frame and the frame copied the original Jeep of WW2. The thought was to have the driver sit in the middle seat similar to a tractor. Obviously it was move to either right or left depending upon the country’s laws. I have a 1967 series lla, and it still has the openings for a power takeofff. Thanks for a great video, as always.
I had a 1976 TR6 when I was a senior in highschool and had it for many years. Mine was red with chestnut interior. Just like the owner of the TR said, I too have always regretted selling my TR6. I was at a shop one day and the owner of the shop had a Stag and I got a good look at it and thought it was pretty cool.
Hobietymarty from Nygel Miller. I mentioned to someone else, that I've realised that Triumph was the most stylish company of all time! Took me a long time to see that! Not just the sports cars, but the saloons too. In that way they were exactly like MG! However, although MG colours were nice, I really think that the Triumph colours were the icing on the cake, and still look good TODAY. I just wanted to say that your car's red colour with chestnut inside is the classiest! Who else would be original enough to have a chestnut interior?
Hi Tom. To be fair the Stag is a full 4 seater and that 3litre V8 is a sweet engine when looked after . Manual /overdrive is pretty rare . The power steering is ridiculously light and is dangerous in damp or wet conditions . So is the Ford replacing the "woodie" ? Thanks Tom.
I too love this channel. I have a 50 Chevy 5 window that is a totally stock driver. I love this truck, I am going to put a 5 Speed, new gauges etc but going to keep it reasonably stock.
My Grandfather was a contractor and lived in Cleveland Heights, Ohio. You could not have a pick up truck on your property so he used Ranch Wagons to haul around materials. A 1956 and a 1960. The back seat was folded down when he purchased the car and came back up when he sold it. The 1960 had a 352 ci Interceptor engine and could really run. If I remember correctly the 1960 was the same green color of your 1953. Both of these vehicles smelled like cut lumber inside. A great memory.
STUDEBAKER!!!!! Now your speaking my language! I love Studebakers! Especially proud to be born and raised where they were built! South Bend, IN. I’ve got a 63 Lark in my garage, but it’s got no power train and is half way torn apart…. It needs more body work than I’m able to mess with. So I’d like to get rid of it and find a solid Lark wagon with the sliding roof!
How about a 4 or 5 on a tree?! And did you notice that as well as making full use of the width of the car with a bench seat, the column change also doesn't intrude on the passenger legroom. BUT in addition, despite being REAR wheel drive, somehow it doesn't have a nasty transmission tunnel in the middle! So maximum passenger space! And did you see under the bonnet? The engine isn't all crammed in with unnecessarily extra gadgets , so you have good space to work on the engine. This Ford is a role model for how ALL cars should be designed!
@@nygelmiller5293 I have heard of 'Tree' transmissions with more than 3 forward gears but I don't remember ever seeing one. In terms of extra space under the hood, our 1975 Plymouth Fury sedan with a Slant Six had enough room left over for another...... Slant Six.
That Stude wagon will be running in no time flat - just start tracing every wire related to ignition, probably in 30 mins. he'll find the problem. All of these one alley Barn Finds are special, along with their stories.
I'm in the UK, I have a 67 Triumph Herald and down the road a man has a Triumph GT6 and a guy next door to him has a Triumph Stag..ha ha, I know that is unusual though..!!
What ARE the chances of this? I live on a housing estate in ENGLAND called Roundshaw.This land is where the FIRST airport for London was. So all the streets are named after famous pilots or famous aircraft! Up the street is a road called SPITFIRE Road. Named after the wartime fighterplane. BUT the house on the corner of SPITFIRE Road used have Triumph SPITFIRE outside! How cool is that!
I had a '48 CJ-2A when I was a kid. It would idle in low straight up! My dad always said it had the "Go Devil" engine, flat four. I think the manual said the top speed was 45. I never drove it that fast.
The Ford Ranch wagon was popular in my native New Zealand .As a child of the 50's I always admired them as most would be full of baby boom results.. I had a Stag new...what a challenge! I was continually fixing things on the engine which is a mechanical and design disaster.
Tom, the next time you are in Seattle, come on over to my neighborhood. I live in the Datsun culdesac. At one point we had three Datsuns between two homes. We still have a 2000 roadster and a 77 280Z 2+2. The 620 pickup has moved on...
Tom, Don't know if you made the Pinehurst Memorial day Concours this year, but a fellow had a nice restored 289 Cobra and it reminded me of the day I met you at the Pinehurst resort Concours, about 5 years ago. You had your Corvette race car at that show. Roger
Thanks -- it too has a great backstory. My dad bought it in 87 (it was a 325 e (eta motor)) for my mom and me to share and she then drove it until she could drive no more. It now has an s52 motor and 5 spd gearbox from a 98 m3 -- obd2. It is lowered slightly, has e46 electric seats and is incredibly well balanced. The power curve is butter and it will go like hell.
@@markweir4469 Always intresting and nice with cars that stays in the family, sounds like quite the gem of a car you got. Always nice seeing these old bimmers being taken proper care of! :)

Once again proving I’m here for the stories as much as the cars.
Good for the stories as well as the car's? Good for you!
Man I love this series, it got me into the whole Hagerty channel. This, Know it All, and Buyer's Guide are favourites.
Don't forget the shows Davin does - the man is an excellent host in restoring and working on
these old cars.

A Brit here just discovered this gem of a Channel and will be watching more the presenter is such a Gentleman love it.
Tom is such a chill guy. I could watch him talking to folks for hours.
I almost melted at the first sight of that station wagon. What a sweet car! It is in a beautiful color and love that it still has the straight six. Kudos to you for this channel. I love every new episode.
Do you mean the Ford or the Studebaker estate car? I love the colour of them BOTH!
My dad restored a triumph stag when I was a kid. I liked that car a lot.
Thanks Tom love those Triumphs...
I love this episodes pace. 4.5 cars over 20 minutes. We get to meet the people and hear the stories. Brilliant!
this car of yours , I get tears in my eyes... greeting from Sweden
That lady was so friendly and southern, she reminds me of my Grandmother and Great Grandmother on my Mom's side
Im so happy to see this show back.. no joke.. its like we are moving back before the pandemic and thats tuff for us stuck in California
I never paid attention to the TR-4 good looking car. I always learn something new Tom, thank you!
TR3 and 4s had meaty heads which could be substantially resurfaced increading compression greatly.
Barn Find Hunter is a national treasure.
The flatties are amazing , those Triumphs are cool too. Tom , l love that wagon glad you didn’t restomod it.
i bought the 45 when i was 15 -- i had dreams and very little skill or money. It has come a long way.
great to see you back on the road
Im so glad to see this , Makes me wonder why didnt you introduce this Ford to us earlier Tom, Shes a Stunner.
I'm getting the itch to get my 1969 TR6 (68 build) running again. Had it for 25 years, haven't run it in 14. Lucky enough to have factory hard top too. It's a beautiful car.

Great to have you back Tom doin what you love and what we love. Awesome show. Looking forward to many more finds.
On the road again. Happy hunting Tom glad to see you finding great cars again. 👍🏼
I have been waiting for a Jeep barn find. And they give us 2!
I've been waitin for a Jeep episode as well, I own 3 Jeeps with the latest model year being an '85 AMC Cj7....🇺🇸

Amazing restoration and colours!

I loved that TR4 what a great car.
I have been watching these on and off for awhile and now find out you live in the next town to me. Small world.
Love that Ford wagon just as it is. Glad you left it stock.
*great to see the series return* 👍👍👍👍
Tom your wagon is awesome. I love the weird stuff (plain jane) the big HP stuff is fine and all but this is a beauty.... 3 on the tree, Dog dish caps, straight 6 and a wagon..... love it
My most favorite Triumph is the TR6, love the lines.
However, the Jeep CJs caught my eye, especially the one with the power takeoff. In 1947, Rover in the UK, developed the Series 1 with a power takeoff that went under the body and through the frame and the frame copied the original Jeep of WW2. The thought was to have the driver sit in the middle seat similar to a tractor. Obviously it was move to either right or left depending upon the country’s laws.
I have a 1967 series lla, and it still has the openings for a power takeofff. Thanks for a great video, as always.
Thank you!
Thank you Sirs !!
The TR-4 story is priceless !!!!
This was a great episode! I love wagons! The Triumphs were very to learn about.
That Studebaker is delicious! Even the color is perfect for it.
I too am a fan of the Studebaker - and it's colour!
Love the cars featured! The Stag owner has excellent taste = BMW e30 in the background 👍
Love Davidson and my close friend lives there and my family are all Concord natives❤️
Tom, it's great to see you out and about again. This is one of my favorite channels on You Tube. Thanks.
The TR4 is the best of the 3 for sure. And the Studebakers are amazing

3:22 That is a rlly nice looking E30 as well... got a couple 88 mod E34s, so notice cars like that, hehe
Thanks -- it too has a great backstory. My dad bought it in 87 (it was a 325 e (eta motor)) for my mom and me to share and she then drove it until she could drive no more. It now has an s52 motor and 5 spd gearbox from a 98 m3 -- obd2. It is lowered slightly, has e46 electric seats and is incredibly well balanced. The power curve is butter and it will go like hell.
@@markweir4469 Always intresting and nice with cars that stays in the family, sounds like quite the gem of a car you got. Always nice seeing these old bimmers being taken proper care of! :)
I love the Ford Wagon,i miss my 1962 Ford Fairlane with inline 6 three on the tree and my 1966 AMC Rambler American 440 with the same setup.
I love those older AMC cars, my Uncle's got a 65 AMC Marlin if I'm not mistaken, with a pumped up Ford 351 Windsor under the hood...✌🏻🇺🇸
I am not a station wagon guy ,but its still cool .
Those old Studie trucks are so tough and solid a lot are still around and being used.
Your cars are amazing
