1968 Triumph TR250 Additional Info:
This is an actual Barn/Farm find, really! If you are into Triumphs, you know these it is really hard to find a complete unmolested one. This was an estate car and was siting for years, The last inspection was 1977. The car is 99% complete missing only the grille. Engine looks to be original still having the bumble bee hoses. Engine is locked up but it's been sitting with fluid in all cylinders to free it up. I'm pretty sure it'll move at some point. transmission shifts through all gears. Looks like there is a good radiator wrapped in wood. I think the car was hit in the front as the front valance looks a bit bent but repairable. The body panels are in really good condition as you can see in the pictures. Hood and trunk lid are very good. The car will need some rocker repair both inner and outer. I have a new inner sill repair piece that goes with the car. The floors are pretty good with the exception of the front left and front right where the inner rocker meets the floor. As you can see in the pictures the rest of the floors on both sides are really good. Trunk floor has a small hole on the left side but otherwise is clean. Battery box will need repaired too. Seats are complete and in driver condition, wood dash is complete with good veneer needing only refinishing, All gauges present with the exception of one not original, all have great faces, glass and bezels. Top bow is present. The frame is excellent with the exception of the section on the right rear under the trunk. Breast plate seems good too. I have an extra front and rear bumper, extra windshield with frame as well as an original steering wheel, that will need recovered, with center cover. The wheels are the correct TR250 wheels and I think I have a 5th one, I'll check. I can believe the miles are original at 44164 as it was only on the road for less than 10 years and it still have the bumble bee hoses.I have a notarized PA title with notarized death certificate to go with the car.I try to describe all my items the best I can so there are no surprises. Please check my feedback. I can be reached at 814-931-0627 with questions and I have the car advertised locally and will end the auction with a local sale. I will assist in shipping as long as all arrangements are made in advance.If you are looking for a TR250 to restore, this one is complete, so bid away!!!
