Description
Capots Vintage, specialists in sports cars and collectibles in Lyon, offer for sale a 1957 Triumph TR3:
nicknamed "small mouth" due to the shape of its grille, we are offering a 1957 TR3, therefore an early phase, presented in its Signal Red colour with a black faux leather interior with white piping. The TR3A, produced between 1957 and 1962 with around 58, 236 examples, are in turn nicknamed "large mouth." The TR3B, produced in 1962, saw around 3, 331 units built.
At the front, this British roadster features a bumper equipped with two overriders, long-range headlights with badge-plates and protective grills over the lights. At the rear, there are also two additional overriders as well as a luggage rack. Notably, our car is fitted with four steel wheels matching the body colour, like the original TR3 models.
The black interior with white piping is in good condition, with seats recently retrimmed. The paintwork is in good condition, showing a certain patina in places, which adds charm to the whole.
Mechanically, the 2. 0L engine has been recently overhauled. In addition, we carried out a compression test, which proved satisfactory.
It is sold with its two wind deflectors and its hood cover, and comes with a four-seat collector's registration document.
Photo and video dossier available on request.
Part-exchange possible against your sports car or collectible.
