1963 Triumph TR4

Triumph TR4 (1963)
for sale

Price: US $2,000.00

Description:

This project car comprises a rolling shell from a 62/63 TR4 which has been (prior to my ownership) restored. Was repainted in original British Racing Green but subsequently got a few chips in it (still a really nice rust free starting point). Chassis in great shape, black painted, no signs of recurring rust. Recon'd suspension and brakes (not totally sure how good the recon is since this was also prior to my ownership).
Engine and gearbox (non overdrive) from a '67 TR4A (non-IRS). Was seen running before I purchased it. Mileage unknown but thought to be pretty low.
Three wings/fenders, great shape, in primer, also come from the later car. Front left wing is rough, needs some patch welding or replacing.
The doors and boot/trunk (sorry forgot to photograph) are still on the '67 parts car but are in great shape, no dings, no rust and primed.
Windscreen in good shape. Hood mechanism good but no cloth. Two sets of seats to choose from, with and without headrest. No carpets.
Dash is in good shape, it's been restored but could probably be redone. Instruments all thought to be working and in good shape. Bumpers in fairly good shape, usual pits. I hadn't decided whether to rechrome or not. A few minor dents, easily knocked out. Most of the lights are either fine or I have replacements for them.
Everything is dusty but garaged or covered and well looked after. All stripped parts are bagged, labelled and boxed.
Approx. $2000 of new parts
to complete restoration, chassis mountings, pretty much all rubber components you can think of, trim pieces, including new transmission tunnel (plastic instead of the daft original cardboard).
I can't guarantee there is everything needed to finish (certainly not carpets and interior trim) but pretty close.
I'm selling for the old reasons of ill-health and more pertinently the consequent loss of cash to finish. Breaks my heart, this was a dream, but you can pick it up and finish it easily. Send me a photo when it's done!
The rest of the '67 doner car is available if you're interested. It's in fair shape, needs new drivers side floor and a few other patches welded in. Not part of the sale but available.
Anything I haven't photographed or mentioned, just ask.
