I've seen quite a few, some claiming to be original, but none that have convinced me beyond doubt.

I think the 'spraycan look' is due to the bad lighting and a greasy body. I kinda like this colour, but one should ask for better pics. There are more pics of the case than of the bass....

Man, that doesn't look anything like my black Triumph.  Mine has two wheels!  ;D
This one looks just as greasy, though...

It's an auction for the case only. ;)  But I agree, I'd like to see more pictures of the bass.

LOL! As long as we're going there, a friend of mine had a Triumph with 4 wheels (a TR-8). On a good day, it could even get all the way across a parking lot before needing another major overhaul.

TR7s and 8s sure are bad ;D

I have a great Steve McQueen Triumph t-shirt, but I have to loose my beer belly before I'll wear it well.

I used to have a Citroen ID19 (I'm a recovering automotive masochist :) ), and one of the local guys that would wrench on those had this TR-7 that he managed to stuff a Boss 302 into.  I guess that's one way to improve the reliability! 

It sounded really menacing, but still looked like a TR-7.
