Colin Lindsay Posted May 31, 2019 Report Share Posted May 31, 2019 https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/triumph-herald-Body-Shell/233239130347?hash=item364e22b0eb:g:AnIAAOSwo2Bc6wm3 This one is listed as a Herald bodyshell, but it's actually a late Spitfire - bodytub, bonnet bootlid roof and doors, all currently for 99p in Bishopstoke, Hants. It looks amazingly solid and at least some of the parts have to be of use to someone here; I know some members have been looking for these bits in the recent past and I doubt if you'll get any cheaper. No connection to me whatsoever! Note that this is not one of those scam listings ie "Triumph Herald spark Plug £100... phone me for other parts" sort of thing; the auction appears to be for all the body parts in one go. No bids yet, auction ending on Sunday 2nd at 11pm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rlubikey Posted May 31, 2019 Report Share Posted May 31, 2019 That's a late ('79 on) body with the "bowl" behind the brake M/C to accept tandem braking. The TR Register have been talking about fake 99p TR6's, but I don't know how you spot these scams. Go and see it first!!! Cheers, Richard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poppyman Posted May 31, 2019 Report Share Posted May 31, 2019 I have reported this item to fleabay. If it is genuine it will stay on, if not it should vanish within 12 hrs (if fleabay get their act together) Tony. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colin Lindsay Posted May 31, 2019 Author Report Share Posted May 31, 2019 I doubt very much if it's a fake. Even if it is, you've lost 99p. Have you checked the poster's eBay history? He's bought a lot of classic stuff in the past year. In any case, he has now ended the listing himself. Pity, someone would have had a real bargain.

poppyman Posted May 31, 2019 Report Share Posted May 31, 2019 At a guess Colin someone has probably made him an offer he could'nt refuse and has got a bargain Strange though, he started having bids..... Tony. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
