For one point, identity the year, make, model, and builder of this little convertible.

Fury by Michelotti in 1965.
It would still have looked new and wonderful in 1975 :-)

You are correct.

Point given.

Who wouldn't want a 6-cylinder Spitfire, with hidden headlights?

Although it doesn't seem to be referred to on most websites today, I recall that at the time this car was actually called the Triumph TR Fury.

Here's a rear-view, and the badging to the right of the rear number plate reads "TR Fury".

Wow, yet more photos taken from the Cartier 'Style et Luxe' concours at the Goodwood Festival of Speed! This is rewarding to see, and I've got some very interesting plans for the 2017 Cartier. More info to follow once I can confirm more early next year...
