This home market example with overdrive has had a number of noteworthy improvements including a high lift cam, rack and pinion steering, new wiring loom, stainless steel exhaust manifold, 4-pot Revington calipers, new front and rear shock absorbers, and a Kenlowe fan. The interior has been recently reupholstered in Red leather with White piping, and Black weather gear (hood, tonneau cover and sidescreens). Other upgrades include front bushes replacement, new tyres 12 month ago.
Final evolution of the Triumph TR2/TR3 sportscar line (save for the American market TR3B), the TR3A was introduced in September 1957. Its tough boxed section chassis featured independent coil and wishbone front suspension, a leaf sprung 'live' rear axle and disc / drum brakes. Fitted with a 1991cc four-cylinder OHV unit developing some 104bhp and 117lbft of torque, it was reputedly capable of 110mph. A great sales success on both sides of the Atlantic, the model provided a rather more visceral alternative to its MG and Jaguar competition. Great fun to drive, the ‘sidescreen TRs’ have long enjoyed a keen following among enthusiasts.
