Seller's comments about 1959' Triumph TR3

This is a great looking TR3A in navy blue with tan interior, all in very good condition. This is a genuine right-hand drive vehicle with its original registration number. The car underwent a body-off restoration some years ago, which is documented by photographs in its history file, and has been very well maintained ever since – it is in nice, original specification, the only slight variation being that the engine has been bored out to 2. 2 litre with new later type cylinder heads. The result is that the car performs extremely well and is further enhanced by the highly desirable overdrive. The engine was rebuilt in 2017 and we understand that the front suspension was renewed recently. The car has been in long-term ownership from 2012 until very recently and during this period, there has been significant investment in maintaining and enhancing the car. The bodywork is excellent with good, well-fitting panels, the leather interior is first class, the hood is like new and side screens are good, all fitting properly. The underside is structurally excellent and clean and tidy, whilst the under bonnet area is nicely detailed. The engine is strong, giving good performance, good oil pressure and no overheating. This is a great car to drive, with everything working well, good gearbox, rear axle etc – a true ‘driver’s car’. The history file suggest that it has covered 92, 500 miles. Comes with V5C, old green continuation book, some invoices, MOT history and having just been fully serviced, also comes with new MOT.
