Imported from years of club emails (sent round Graeme Oxley's Stag Forum email list). Names, dates and details may be incomplete or wrong. If you spot a mistake, please let us know and we'll fix it. Got old Stag emails, from before 2017 or on a subject that isn't here yet? Forward them to mail@triumphstag.info and we'll add them to the archive.
I’ve bitten the bullet and making a start on the National Stag Register.
Attached is a quick mock-up of what probably it could look like (with my Stag shown).
This is currently on a Excel Spreadsheet and can be altered easily and could be listed in Chassis No. order or something else.
Placing it on a Website is a long way off but at least a start has been made. A website has the ability to view full-sized photos and change the viewing order of the list (chassis or engine No. or Owner Name or Rego No.).
I think some thought and discussion should be had with the following in mind:
1. Privacy – what do we want revealed about our personal details taking into account that this could appear on the Internet for all the Trolls to see?
2. What other detail needs to be added or deleted?
3. Where can we get all the other Stags info if not known by GO?
4. Comments welcome.

Good idea John. I would be all for it. I know most of the serious car clubs keep something like this. Then we can truly know how many cars are still here in Australia. As well as extracting other interesting and important data. May encourage but would certainly eliminate any rebirthing..
Points I would like to see:
-Aussie delivered or private imported at some time (Not to detract from the vehicle but to see how many Aussie delivered cars still survive)
-Current engine type and if transplanted engine what type (Again not to detract anything from the vehicle but some cars have had the 3 litre engine transplanted back)
-Road registered or not
-Factory or early dealer fitted options (not that there were many options boxes you could tick here in Australia but I have seen a RHD white one with factory AC here in Melbourne)
