1962 Triumph TR3B Additional Info:

When the Triumph TR3 debuted in 1955, Triumph intended to update the previous TR2 but also bring the driving experience and styling into the second half of the 1950s! The car debuted with the TR2s 1991cc Inline 4-cylinder motor that made 95 horsepower, plenty for a car that weighed just over 2,000 pounds. In 1957, the TR3A was launched, further improving the car by incorporating a wider front grille and front disc brakes, becoming the first production car to feature them as standard equipment! The TR3B was a special short production in response to dealers concerned that the new look of the soon to be unveiled TR4 would not catch on. Only 530 of these TR3B's with the "TSF" chassis designation were made that had the original TR3 engine before they made the switch to the TR4's increased displacement. We are very excited to offer this 1962 Triumph TR3B convertible refinished in proper Signal Red exterior with a Black top and Black vinyl interior with white accent piping. Powering this sporty roadster is its 2.0L Inline 4-cylinder dual carbureted engine producing 95 horsepower mated to a 4-speed manual transmission. Features include folding convertible top with window curtains, convertible boot cover, Jaeger and Lucas instrumentation, dual fender-mounted side mirrors, ventilation control, chrome bumpers, and 15" steel wheels with triumph center caps wrapped in Nexen tires measuring 165/80R15. Showing 77,710 miles on the odometer, this Triumph is a great example that showcases the last year of this body style as the TR4 would change the entire appearance with straighter body lines and absence of the traditional English fenders. Previously titled and stored in Ohio where it was restored in 2014-2015 with many receipts of the process down to the nuts and bolts. During its thorough restoration, this TR3 received new exterior paint, vinyl interior, chrome bumpers, fender mirrors, convertible curtain set, exterior emblems, headlamp assembly, rear leaf springs, shocks, electric fuel pump, clutch, master cylinder, new SU carburetors and lots of other small parts and pieces to bring this Triumph back to life. Since its arrival at our museum, we have continued to care for this TR3B and have replaced the thermostat, installed an aluminum radiator with electric cooling fan, water temperature gauge, tuned the carburetors, new fuel filter & new spark plugs, changed the oil & filter, and installed 2 new tie rod ends with front end alignment. This is a solid driving sports car that would be perfect for any British import enthusiasts and classic car collector alike. Thank you for your interest and please contact us with any additional questions or schedule a time to come visit our showroom and see this among many other cars up close and personal!
