Driving the 1968 Triumph TR250

[@sammy2840]

Loved my TR250! Was working in Waterloo, Iowa. Just got it out of the paint shop. Sent over to England for real British Racing Green Metallic. Beautiful! Guy pulls up next to me in a pickup and yells ‘Hey, ya painted her John Deere Green...NICE JOB! Heart sank... LOL

[@markcook3570]

Also own a 250, mine is white with red interior

[@craigpennington1251]

No computerized cooky cutter cars here folks. These are the real deal and they look fabulous-all of them. You guys take great care of those beauties. NICE!

[@BruceBoschek]

Great drive and great video! What a lovely lineup of cars. That e-type is a real knockout! What a gorgeous car. Thanks very much for taking us along.

Awesome line up of cars, Chef. Nice of Shawn to let you drive the car. Still loving the TR-3.

[@markcook3570]

As a Tr-250 owner I've had rides like these many times with some guys from Ky. the guy who leads owns a beautiful yellow hardtop Jag....

[@cheftush]

It was certainly fun to drive my buddies 250 while he drove his XKE.

[@markcook3570]

@@cheftush My 250 is white with red interior and instead of the silver I went with a Triumph red , It pops so much better

[@cheftush]

@@markcook3570 love the white with red!

[@markcook3570]

@@cheftush When I had the car repainted the local British garage where I live down in Nashville, I ask JD what he would think if I painted the stripes across the hood Red he said use a Triumph red I don’t see a problem with it so when I was having a brand new red interior put in I had the red stripes going across the hood that and a pair of 15 x 6 Daytons she’s good to go

[@ralphcap2476]

Glad to see you back since you already have 2 white cars the 250 would look hot painted black with the red interior and doing the front stripe in gray since there is a lot or chrome on the car it would pop.

[@markcook3570]

I own a white TR 250 with red interior I painted the stripe across the front Triumph red it looks great it really pops with the red interior

[@RustyBeauties]

Wow, that was a nice drive. Great cars! Just one thing will be bugging me forever now. What the heck that oversized load was!

[@kevinwillis9126]

Nice E type.. Thanks for sharing..

"Couldn't be a nicer night for a ride.................apparently there's an oversize load coming....." -- lines from 'Carry On Cruising'

[@1970sman]

Wow.........that is the best Jag I have ever seen. Why did they change them?

[@hadrianmerler9170]

Hello Mr. Cheftush. Have to know what colour that e type is? Asking for my tr4 .

[@cheftush]

Hi Hadrian, I can certainly ask the owner. If he knows, I’ll report back here. Cheers, Tush

[@cheftush]

Hi Hadrian, I reached out to the owner. Unfortunately not much help. The car was originally signal red from the factory and repainted silver prior to his ownership. He doesn’t know the colour or have a paint code. Sorry.

[@hadrianmerler9170]

@@cheftush Thanks for hunting. It looks close to an Aston Martin California Sage. I'll keep hunting too.

[@cheftush]

@@hadrianmerler9170 just looked that colour up....it’s beautiful. That would look awesome on a TR4. A few years ago there was a TR4 for sale on bring a trailer painted “cactus green”. That was beautiful as well.

[@hadrianmerler9170]

@@cheftush Curious, when you looked up the AM colour did it have a code?

[@markaluge]

If I could take home just one of those cars it would be the 250!

5:55 Almost like Scotland, or the North Yorkshire Moors...

[@cutworm59]

TR3RD. The topaz TR6 needs tiger stripes. That Jaguar is fast! If you go with a red interior can I buy your black door panels for my TR6?

[@jamessipos6817]

Nice drive in Calgary. Never been there but have always wanted to go. Now more than ever, but probably not in my Tr3A. It is not yet ready for that kind of trip from Ohio. My son, grandson and I are working feverishly on it trying to get it ready for local driving this summer. I noticed on one of your older videos that you have an electric rad fan on the front of the radiator. I mounted mine on the front and had interfence from the lower shelf on the apron. Did you have to modify anything to make room for the fan on your TR3A? Also, was it difficult to remove the factory fan hub bolt from the crankshaft? It is giving me nightmares. Thanks for all of your great videoes. You keep inspiring me to continue.
