Triumph TR3A for sale, 1960.
UK factory export model May 1960, and shipped to California USA. Imported back to the U.K in 1992 as a restoration. Since then the car had only two previous enthusiast owners, one had the car for some 4 years, where the car was changed to right hand drive.
The other owned the car as a hobby, and maintained the car in good order over a 22 year period, attending shows at weekends during summer months. I purchased the TR in the autumn of 2000, just before the Covid lockdown, and for health reasons the car has not been used, since purchase.
It’s great usable, solid car. It’s finished in old English white, with a red leather interior. Wire wheels, overdrive, side screens, aftermarket aero screens, red tonneau cover, seatbelts and silicone hoses.
The TR was fitted with the more powerful Tr 4 engine during its US restoration.
Because the car has not been used, some work will be inevitable to refurbish the petrol system, as the car has been standing, in a garage unused and started for over year. Clutch will require freeing.
With the car will come a number of spares, plus new red mohair hood (unfitted) plus alloy rocker cover, electronic ignition, hood stick cover, etc.
As I have recently been diagnosed with Parkinson’s it really is not practical to consider keeping the TR. So hopefully my loss will be your gain.
All mots showing progression of mileage since import back to the U.K., are filed along with invoices.
