Vehicle Detail

1956 Triumph TR3 Roadster. I have a clear Utah Title in my name. This is a restoration project. It is very complete and has numerous extra parts. The engine runs good and holds good oil pressure. The Triumph comes with a complete set of extra front fenders, rear fenders, door and spare tire cover. Please look closely at all of the photos. The car is original, but it has been sitting unattended in a garage for over 30 years. The car was originally purchased in Wyoming and was moved to Utah as a restoration project. I have taken photos of the spare fenders, air cleaners, gas caps, rear bumpers, etc. The car has a solid frame and the floors have been repaired some time ago. I purchased the extra fenders, doors, and NOS parts in preparation for the restoration. It also comes with the original TR3 Shop Manual, after market restoration book, and parts catalogs. I'm selling the car based "Too many projects and not enough time or money." If you have questions, please let me know. I will respond quickly. I want the new owner to know exactly what they are getting. With this in mind, I will describe the problem areas: 1. There is rust in the fenders. I have purchased extra fenders for both sides, front and back. The body has some dents, but is very restorable. 2. The engine runs good, but the clutch slave cylinder is gummed up from years of just sitting. The transmission seems to be ok, but you can't shift the car without a working slave cylinder. 3. The interior is complete, but tattered. The interior needs to be restored. 4. The windshield is cracked, but I have a complete set of NOS rubber windshield seals. I have the top windshield seal, the windshield to cowl seal, and the glacier windshield seal. 5. It has a complete set of bumpers and bumper guards - with extra rear bumpers. 6. The hood and trunk need to be aligned. There are new NOS hinges for both the hood and trunk, but they need alignment.7. The tires are dry rotted and will need to be replaced. The wire wheels are good, but the knock offs are pretty beat up. 8. I'm running the engine off of an auxiliary gas tank. The original gas tank is in the car and has two gas caps, but I didn't want to risk sucking bad gas into the fuel pump and carburetors. As I mentioned, the engine runs good, sounds good, and holds good oil pressure. Some of the electrical components, like the horns, work, but it is missing the headlight bulbs. The engine has fresh oil, spark plugs, and antifreeze. 9. There are too many extra parts to pack into the car and I will work with the new owner regarding getting all of the parts delivered. Again, please look closely at all of the photos. If you have less than 10 positive feedback in your Ebay feedback score, please email me before bidding. I want this to be a good straight forward auction. A $500. PayPal deposit if required within 24 hours of the auction ending, unless other arrangements are agree to by both parties. Good luck bidding.
