Long lost Vitesse

Last week's Telegraph report on the London to Brighton Classic Car run was illustrated with a photo of a Triumph Vitesse reg. VAP 509H. I owned this car in the 70's, albeit a different colour. Is there any legal way I can locate the current owner to forward the original 'Vitesse' badge to him and any other bits and documents I still have?

You could get in touch with the club and make your offer to the owner via it. Probably this club: www.tssc.org.uk/ otherwise this club: www.club.triumph.org.uk/links/links.htm
