A very nice TR3A that is an excellent 'driver' and also happens to look very nice. Buy 1958' Triumph TR3 A on classicmoto. Engine cranks however we did not try to start it yet. Located in LeeвЂ™s Summit, Missouri, you will find the Triumph listed for sale here on Craigslist. However, it would be the perfect car for a family to tackle if they donвЂ™t mind getting their hands dirty. It appears to be an essentially complete vehicle that requires some TLC. Rust in typical places (floors, sills, batt box, fenders bottoms etc) Frame looks very solid. This 1958 Triumph TR3A is a case in point. Stored for many years, last on road in 1976. I spent hours with screwdrivers and puddy knives scraping it away and it was still a mess. 40 years of dirt, grease, oil, grime, and whatever thing you can think of was built up on the engine compartment and engine block which seemed to be in endless supply. Starts instantly, revs quickly even when cold, all of the typical parameters are excellent, looks good, rides smoothly, shocks working properly, exhaust is fairly quiet, has seat belts, wipers work perfectly, and.that's it. Used 1958' Triumph TR3 A - 1958 TR3a for restoration. It was a big day when the engine was removed. Trunk is nicely carpeted, interior is very nice and includes a rare back seat.Д¬hrome all appears to be new, engine bay is (as the English say) 'tidy,' wire wheels are round (what else could one want?), tires appear to be nearly new, we checked the steering and front end and all seems nice and tight, what else is left? Top appears to be fairly new, side curtains also appear fairly new, and we are about to fit a new tonneau. And all of the original gauges work properly. Wiring is so good I suspect it has a fairly new wiring harness. Gearbox is also excellent, quiet in first gear, excellent synchromesh going up and down through the gears, clutch grabs perfectly with no slippage or chatter. No smoke cold or hot, quiet valves, no rocker or bearing noises from a cold start, this is about as good as it gets. Very clean underneath, no sign of any rust holes and the chassis appears to be very solid.Дown the road, revs freely, accelerates quickly, maintains 70 psi oil pressure at operating temperaute, 60 si at idle, we did a compression test and found 140-150 psi in every cylinder. And, of course, more Lotus/Triumph 10 halfshafts than I will hopefully need in a lifetime. A car we sold a few years ago, just back in on trade.Д®xcellent body with very presentable older paint.no cracks, no bubbles, NOT a 10k show finish but very nice for road use and local shows. TR3a sheet metal here, TR4 engine there, MGA engine there, NOS voltage regulators and generators elsewhere.
