This 1965 prize winning Triumph Herald was a ground up restoration which included a modified Spitfire 1500 engine, transmission and rear end. Body work and paint were subcontracted. Carolyn used the original dashboard as a template to cut a new plywood dash. She then installed new veneer followed by multiple coats of marine varnish. For the trunk, Carolyn replaced the wooden runners on the luggage rack with red oak which also received marine varnish. The job was completed in 2000, and the car still looks great! Runs better than ever, too!

In September 2008 the Herald was an important part of daughter Jennifer's wedding!
