The inspired use of the Triumph brand, initially on a conventionally designed saloon, and then on a world beating range of sports cars that immediately gained success in competition, created a strong desire for the brand amongst enthusiastic motorists who appreciated its style and engineering. Changing use of language led to the Standard name being discontinued, with all models subsequently sold as Triumphs.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e This book looks at every model produced by the company from 1945 until the end of production in 1984 with the Triumph Acclaim; a car sometimes derided by purists, but the car that paved the way for co-operation between the remains of the former British Leyland behemoth and Honda of Japan. Each model is fully illustrated, and described with comprehensive technical detail.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAdditional Information\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePeriod Covered:\u003cbr\u003e 1945-1984\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Models Covered:\u003cbr\u003e All car and light commercial models produces by the Standard Triumph Company from 1945 to 1984, including Vanguard, Renown, Mayflower, TR, Spitfire, Herald, Vittesse, 2000, 2500, 1300, 1500, Toledo, Dolomite, Acclaim\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Veloce Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47628496240860,"sku":"9781787110779","price":27.75,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0814\/8297\/3404\/files\/apiqio7dk__89860.1642581475.1280.1280.jpg?v=1772100048","url":"https:\/\/automotobookshop.com.au\/products\/triumph-standard-cars-1945-to-1984-a-pictorial-history","provider":"Automoto Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
