1959 Triumph TR3 Description
Offered for sale, from KURT TANNER MOTORCARS, is this project TR3A for restoration. This car was recently acquired from it's long term San Diego owner who had plans to fully restore it.The car has a very good clean frame and the inner bodyshell appears to be accident free. The floors panels are new and still need to be welded in. The rocker panels have been removed and a new inner and outer set need to be installed which is fairly easy and straightforward. There is the typical rust in the battery box bottom that needs repair. Trunk floor and spare wheel well area are good.
The car is partially dis-assembled for restoration but appears relatively complete with all the parts stored in boxes. Included are the original seats, cockpit capping set, softtop frame, instruments/wiring, heater, trafficator...all the rare and important bits that make this car a worthwhile project. The car is missing the fuel tank and windshield glass. Five original 48 spoke wire wheels are included.
The matching numbers engine turns smoothly by hand and was running approximately 6-7 years ago. This car is very economically priced for entry level into a good 50's British sports roadster.
Please look at all pictures and call or email with any questions.
This car is sold with a clear title and is available for inspection by appointment.
