This 1957 Triumph TR3 was purchased new by the current owner and is finished in red over black vinyl. The car is powered by a 1,991L inline-four paired with a four-speed manual transmission, and equipment includes 15″ steel wheels, an ANSA muffler, chrome bumpers, and a black soft top and side curtains. Service performed in preparation for the sale is said to have included cleaning the fuel tank, overhauling the brakes, rebuilding the carburetors, and replacing the generator.
The body is finished in red and features chrome bumpers and trim, a black soft top, and side curtains. The seller states that corrosion in the floor, left quarter panel, and rockers was repaired in 2014 and that the areas were subsequently repainted.
15″ steel wheels were painted red in 2014 and feature polished dog-dish hubcaps. 165/80 Nexen SB-802 tires showing 2013 date codes are fitted at all four corners. The car is equipped with front disc brakes, and the braking system was reportedly overhauled in preparation for the sale.
The cabin features black vinyl bucket seats with contrasting white piping along with a matching dashboard and carpets. Amenities include a locking glovebox, a polished grab handle, a Triumph shift knob, and a dash-mounted rearview mirror.
The banjo-style steering wheel frames Jaeger instrumentation consisting of a 120-mph speedometer and a 6k-rpm tachometer. Gauges for oil pressure, coolant temperature, fuel level, and amperage are mounted in the center of the dashboard. The five-digit odometer shows 34k miles.
The 1,991L inline-four is fitted with a polished valve cover and twin SU carburetors. Service performed in preparation for the sale is said to have included rebuilding the carburetors, cleaning the fuel tank, and replacing the generator.
Power is sent to the rear wheels through a four-speed manual transmission. The exhaust system is equipped with an ANSA muffler.
