1975 Triumph Stag
Manual O/D Envisioned as a luxury sports car, the
Triumph Stag was designed to compete directly with the Mercedes-Benz
SL class models. All Stags were four-seater convertible coupés, but
for structural rigidity (and to meet new American rollover standards
at the time) the Stag required a B-pillar "roll bar" hoop connected
to the windscreen frame by a T-bar. A removable hardtop was a
popular factory option for the early Stags, and was later supplied
as a standard fitment.
The car started as a styling experiment cut and shaped from a 1963-4
Triumph 2000 pre-production saloon, which had also been styled by
Michelotti, and loaned to him by Harry Webster, Director of
Engineering at Triumph from the early to late 1960s. Their agreement
was that if Webster liked the design, Triumph could use the
prototype as the basis of a new Triumph model. Harry Webster, who
was a long time friend of Giovanni Michelotti, who he called "Micho",
absolutely loved the design and spirited the prototype back to
England. The end result, a two door drop head (convertible) had
little in common with the styling of its progenitor 2000, but
retained the suspension and drive line. Triumph liked the Michelotti
design so much that they propagated the styling lines of the Stag
into the new T2000/T2500 saloon and estate model lines of the 1970s.
