Normal 0 false false false EN-US X-NONE X-NONE 1960 Triumph TR3A, WITH OD Here we have a 1960 TR3 with the overdrive gearbox. This TR3 is in great shape, considering her age. She fires right up and will be an extremely easy restoration project, or you can enjoy her how as she is now. We are listing this TR3 for those who would like to restore her. If we are to restore this vehicle, it will be at the concourse level and she will return to the market at $35k. Do not miss your chance to own a simple TR3 restoration project! To inquire about this vehicle, please contact Mr. King @ (317)333-4427For those who offered circa $7k, here you go. Do not buy another TR3 for more that does not run! We are acquiring more inventory and either she needs to sell or be put in line for restoration. Do not miss your opportunity. Last Chance! BODY: The body on this TR3 is fairly good shape for her age. The trunk pan is rust free and is extremely solid. The body panels are solid, excluding some minor rust on the front passenger fender. The rocker panels also show signs of rust and should be repaired. The floors pans have been patched over a decade ago, and they should be repaired. The frame is extremely solid and straight. The engine compartment is solid and is rust free. There appears to be rust in the battery tray area. All of the body work can be easily repaired without much effort. The glass is perfect! The front and rear bumpers should be addressed. The chrome turn and brake light bezels are nice. The glass bowls for the turn markers are nice. The lenses for the brakes are nice. INTERIOR: The interior is missing the factory seats, carpet, etc. The top is included with the car, but it is ugly. The leather is fine but the plastic windows are nasty. MECHANICAL: The engine runs extremely well! She fires right up and idles strong. The compression on all cylinders is perfect. The gearbox is also the overdrive model. The gearbox shifts well, but the slave cylinder will need to be thoroughly bleed. The fuel pump is new. The upper thermostat housing is new, with a new thermostat. The entire brake system is new and in perfect working order. The slave cylinder is new. The clutch/brake fluid reservoirs are new. The coil is new. The distributor is rebuilt. The battery is newer. All of the gauges work properly, excluding the fuel gauge. The horn, lights, brake lights, and turn signals all work properly.
