I dont recall - does that have kingpins on the front end or ball joints? The first car I learned to drive on was a 1959 Triumph Herald 2 dr ( saloon?). I think same chassis and funky swing arm rear suspension. I didnt mind lubing on a lifty but not my favourite thing at home on the tarmac.

Upper balljoint, lower "trunion" in the front. Yep, same suspension.

I'd love to have an old Herald out in the driveway instead of the Yaris. Would be the perfect compliment to my Spitfire. But, they're hard to find. In fact, I don't think I've ever actually SEEN one.

Nice car Silky!
I LOVE that color. My buddy at work has his Yaris in that same color.
