Its not even a Meriden Triumph, but instead a Coventry Triumph.
I just got it last week so haven't done anything to it yet and there looks to be a load of work and parts required before its back on the road.
Its a 1938 Tiger 70 - 250, mostly there but needing a lot of love and attention.
It has been raced in its time and is rumored to be "big" for a 250, so opening up the engine might bring some surprises.
I wanted a girder fork "tiddler" and this one fits the bill.

, looks like a great find, is that tank in as good of shape as it looks? Keep sending pictures of this build.
