THIS BEAUTIFUL TR3A IS FINISHED IN ROYAL BLUE WITH TAN INTERIOR. TAN TOP AND SIDE CURTAINS. THE TR HAS HAD A VERY NICE RESTORATION COMPLETED ABOUT 14 YEARS AGO BUT DOES NOT SHOW THE EXPECTED WEAR OF THAT AMOUNT OF TIME. THE ODOMETER INDICATES 3,372 MILES WHICH WE BELIEVE TO BE THE MILES SINCE THE RESTORATION AS THE GENERAL APPEARENCE AND FEEL OF THE CAR WHEN DRIVING GIVES THAT IMPRESSION. RECORDS WITH THE CAR SHOW THAT 87MM PISTONS (83MM IS STANDARD) WERE USED IN THE ENGINE OVERHAUL. THE CYLINDER COMPRESSION IS, 1 THRU 4: 155, 155, 150 AND 155. THE GEARBOX SHIFTS SMOOTH, CLUTCH TAKE UP IS SPOT ON AND THE CAR DRIVES GREAT. THE ENGINE HAS GOOD OIL PRESSURE, NO SMOKE AND RUNS VERY STRONG. THE TR3A HAS BEEN CHECKED OUT AND SERVICED IN OUR SHOP. IT IS READY TO USE, SHOW AND ENJOY. WE CAN ARRANGE SHIPPING TO ANY LOCATION IN THE WORLD. IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS OR WOULD LIKE ADDITIONAL PHOTOS EMAIL OR CALL 636 239 6781.On Nov-16-15 at 10:52:21 PST, seller added the following information: ANSWERING A FEW QUESTIONS: THIS CAR DOES NOT HAVE OVERDRIVE, HOWEVER, NON OVERDRIVE CARS ARE GEARED HIGHER AND THE NET DIFFERENCE AT 70MPH WITH AN OD CAR IN 4TH OVER AND A STANDARD CAR IN 4TH IS ONLY 350 RPM'S. SOME PEOPLE PREFER TO NOT HAVE THE OVERDRIVE AS THEY DO TEND TO LEAK MORE (JUST MORE PLACES FOR IT TO LEAK THAT A STANDARD GEARBOX). PERTAINING TO THE ENGINE BEING ORIGINAL TO THE CAR: WE DO NOT HAVE A HERITAGE CERTIFICATE BUT TRIUMPH ENGINE NUMBERS ARE SLIGHTLY HIGHER THAN THE CAR NUMBER (MORE ENGINES THAN CARS WERE BUILT) THE COMMISSION NUMBER ON THIS TR3A IS TS80832L AND THE ENGINE NUMBER IS TS81069E WHICH IS A PRETTY DARN SAFE BET THAT THIS IS THE ORIGINAL ENGINE. ALSO IF YOU SEND ME YOUR EMAIL ADDRESS I CAN EMAIL YOU TWO SHORT VIDEOS OF THE CAR.
