This 1963 Triumph TR-4 belongs to my husband and has not been driven in 20 years. Before that, he loved to tinker with it, it was his work in progress. He drove it while he was stationed in the Marines for training in South Texas, he purchased the car in Florida while stationed there. He was sent to the first Iraq war (Desert Storm) and the car has lingered in storage ever since (undriven). It has a clear title. It needs lots of cleaning and TLC, the tires are all flat. It's being sold "as is". Pick up is in Bee County, Texas (about 60 miles from Corpus Christi), or 90 miles south of San Antonio and will be coordinated through a property manager. I'll include his box of books in the sale (Shop Manual, parts catalogues, etc.) I'd be happy to answer any questions. Check out the pictures. Thanks for looking. I had a friend take some pics under the hood and I've posted them. She wasn't able to get under the car because the tires are flat but she told me she didn't see any obvious rust. She took a short video of the inside of the car and dash but so far, I've been unsuccessful at uploading the video, so if you're interested in seeing the video I can make arrangements to send it to you. Don't know why I can't get it to upload but I'll try to figure it out. This car has just been re-listed. After a previous "best offer" was accepted, the buyer changed his/her mind. Please review all of the questions, answers and the buyer's email to me regarding this listing. I'll do my best to answer or get the answer for you. Thanks for looking!
