Ready for the Salt Flats – 1955 Triumph Pre-Unit Custom

In England, Race by AbhiLeave a Comment

This custom Triumph was built to be raced on the Bonneville Salt Flats, though it doesn’t seem to have had its chance yet. Are you feeling lucky? The pre-unit engine was rebuilt by Franz and Grubb and it includes Robbins pistons, Amal GP carbs, and a Morris magneto.

The frame was done by the Factory Metal Works, who lowered and stretched it. The front forks are Cerianis, and it has custom gas and oil tanks. Rounding the package off are Excel rims and Tarozzi foot pegs. I’d love to get more details like a dyno run (and a video of what it sounds like), but for now all I can say is that you can find this custom Triumph Salt Flat racer for sale in Santa Fe, New Mexico with bidding up to $6,100 and the reserve not yet met
