1959 Triumph TR3 A

Description

2200cc - 4 Speed Manual
Frame Off Restoration in 2022 - New Soft Top w/curtains

STK 3889 1959 Triumph TR3

The Triumph TR3A was intended to instill fun into the motoring experience. The very nature of this Triumph's performance rendered it a perfect British sports car - ideal for fun and rallying. The 1991cc 4-cylinder engine output 100hp and was able to push the TR3A to speeds in excess of 100mph. This spectacular 1959 Triumph TR3A has been a prized possession of the current owner for over 40 years and was the beneficiary of a total frame-off restoration completed in 2022. The handsome body was beautifully refinished in 3-stage Pearl White and all chrome is outstanding. A new set of 15” Panasport 'MiniLite' wheels mount fresh Nexen radials. The interior was completely redone and stately red leather upholstery is stunning. Door panels, carpets and trim are excellent. There is a classic 'banjo' wheel and the dash is fitted with refreshed Jaeger gauges (MPH speedo). A new soft top/side curtains snap in place perfectly. The immaculate engine compartment is home to the original 4-cylinder engine that has been rebuilt. The factory cylinder liners were removed and larger bore TR4 liners were pressed in. This enabled the use of 86mm pistons that increased the displacement to 2138cc and horsepower to 105hp. The engine is equipped with dual side-draft carbs, an electronic ignition and aluminum radiator/electric fan. A negative ground alternator-based electrical system has been installed along with a gear-reduction starter. The powerplant is backed by a 4-speed manual gearbox. This stunning TR3A roadster is virtually better than new and comes with an Owner's Manual and vintage '59 license plate. It does the famous Triumph brand proud and will not be here long - move post-haste. ALL VEHICLES SOLD “AS IS”.
