Swallow Doretti 1955
The Swallow Doretti was a two-seater sports car built on Tube chassis
 utilizing Triumph TR2,mechanicals, made between 1954 and 1955.
The marque came from Swallow Coachbuilding Co. (1935) Ltd. which was sold 
in 1945 by Jaguar (formerly SS Cars Ltd) to the Helliwell Group which was 
taken over in 1946 by the British conglomerate, the Tube Investments Group
 (TI). The Dorreti name was derived from Dorothy Deen, who Managed the 
Western US distributorship Cal Sales.
The first and only model produced by Swallow under TI ownership was the
Doretti, which had a tubular Reynolds 531 Cromolly chassis with a body made 
of a steel inner structural skin and aluminium outer. Most cars were supplied 
with overdrive and they were capable of 100 mph. 276 MKI cars were made, 
including a single fixed head coupe version. 
Also two MK II cars The car was designed by in-house engineer
 Frank Rainbow, and produced in the TI factory at The Airport, Walsall, 
Staffordshire, England.
Production stopped in 1955 when the parent company TI changed policy. 
Allegedly, pressure from the British motor industry, most notably Jaguar itself, 
led to the cessation of production of the Doretti. It is thought that the 
directors of TI were pressured in that in the production of the Doretti sports 
car placed TI at an advantage over their customers buying raw materials, 
creating a serious conflict of interest.

Performance :

A car with overdrive tested by the British magazine The Motor in 1954 had a
 top speed of 100.2 mph (161.3 km/h) and could accelerate from 0-60 mph 
(97 km/h) in 12.3 seconds. A fuel consumption of 27.9 miles per imperial 
gallon (10.1 L/100 km; 23.2 mpg-US) was recorded. 
The test car cost £1,158 including taxes.
The standard version without overdrive cost £1102. 
At the time a Triumph TR2 cost £887.

Triumph 2000 Italia

The Triumph Italia 2000 Coupé was built between 1959 and 1962,
 during which time 329 cars were produced. 
Designed by Giovanni Michelotti, the TR3 chassis and mechanical components
 were supplied by the Triumph Motor Company in the United Kingdom,
 and built by Alfredo Vignale in Turin, Italy.

History:

By most accounts, only 329 of the hand-formed bodied TR3s were ever 
built – known as the Triumph Italia 2000 Coupé. 
Designed by Giovanni Michelotti and built by Alfredo Vignale in Turin, 
under contract to Ruffino S.p.A. Industria Construzione Automobile of Naples
 – it was thought that these cars would appeal to people willing to spend 
more for the dependability and ease of obtaining stock mechanical parts, 
but who wanted a better looking car than the standard Triumph 
- "Italian bodywork at its best, 
British tradition in sports car engineering at its finest.”

At the time, Signore Salvatore Ruffino was the managing Director of CESAC,
 the Italian company that distributed Standard-Triumph in Italy.
 He approached Standard-Triumph to supply chassis and mechanical 
components to build 1,000 cars. The introduction of the closed-top,
 two seater was well received at the 1958 Turin Motor Show 
– “Italian artistry and British craftsmanship have come together
 and produced this new, superlative Italia 2000 Coupé.”
Vignale began production in July 1959 with only a few changes to the original 
– rather than a slanting nose and covered glass headlights displayed on 
the prototype, a look similar to Michelotti’s Maserati 3500 design 
was produced. And although the two prototypes had some aluminum
 body panels, all Italias used steel. 
Cars came through with Ascari mufflers with a distinctive 
and melodious tone, and the original Triumph electric overdrive 
switch was moved from its left-hand dash-mounted position
 to an under-dash spot right above the gear shift,
 providing faster, more convenient downshifting out 
of overdrive in turns at high speeds.

Ruffino envisioned building 1.000 cars, between 1960 and 1962, 
with worldwide distribution including the American marketplace. 
He had a verbal agreement to have every Triumph dealer (720) 
purchase an Italia. 
The Italia never became an official model of Standard-Triumph.

However, Ruffino’s vision didn't come to pass for a number of reasons. 
Faced with ensuing financial and labor problems, 
Standard-Triumph was taken over by Leyland Motors in 1961.
 Shortly afterwards, Triumph withdrew their support for the Italia.
 Perhaps fearing increased competition, Triumph concentrated
their efforts on the new TR4 to be released in 1962. 
The TR4, also designed by Michelotti, clearly borrowed many elements 
from the Italia - the distinctive bonnet bulge,
 kick-up door with wind-up windows, and roomier modern body design.

Despite Triumph's pull out, Ruffino S.p.A. re-badged the car as the Italia 2000 
and continued production. Over a three-year production period 
(mid-1959 to mid-1962) Vignale produced approximately 329 cars. 
Most were left-hand drive with the probable exception of six cars.
 The last run of roughly 35 cars were based on the modified 
TR3B chassis rather that theTR3A, and benefited from the improved gearbox
 that had been developed for the TR4.
Most Italia sales in America were handled by Stutz Plaisted Imports 
(Salem, Massachusetts). Even though production at Vignale came to a 
close in 1962, some of the last cars remained unsold until 1965.
 Slow sales can be attributed to the expensive $5,000 price tag
 ($1,000 premium over the TR3) and
 since body parts were not stocked outside Italy, 
buyers wererequired to sign a release form of acknowledgment.
