Listed is a 1959 Triumph TR3. The Triumph runs and drives really well with the engine having less then 250 miles since overhaul. Carburetors and radiator have been rebuilt andreconditioned. Brakes have been overhauled with new rear wheel cylinders, brake shoes, rear brake hose, drums lightly surface, front calipers overhauled, new pads and correct TR3 front rots install, new front wheel cylinder installed and set, .new front brake hoses, new brake master cylinder with the brake system power bleed with Castrol Brake Fluid. Clutch hydraulics were rebuilt and power bleed as well. Transmission is quiet and shifts very smooth on upshift and downshift. Differential is smooth and quiet. Car sits and handles good on the suspension and springs. Bushes are starting to get hard..
Exterior body is rust free with no big dents or damage. A few small garage kissesand as the pictures show no rust or damage to the floor boards. Spare tire compartment is rust free. Trunk floor is rust free. Fenders show no rust. Rugs have been removed. Original Seats and cushions are solid. Rear jump seat is included. Original gauges are all there. Temp gauge does not work. Windshield frame is in nice condition with the glass clear .Top frame folds up and down easily. Doors fit the holes very nicely with the gaps right on. Bull nose shows no previous damage or repair. Lower valancehas lightdamage. Hood and trunk lid are nice. Weather equipment is included with the side curtains and top very useable. Several of the lights are new fixtures but have not been rewired. Somehow we have managed to misplace the right door upper trim and will include it if we find it.
All in all the old Triumph is a really decent car that with minimal work and effort could be a daily drive or a great candidate for a frame off restoration.Hopefully I have given a good overall picture of the car. Please feel free to email any questions. Thanks for looking.
