This California TR3 looks terrible with its sun beaten paint, but it really is a diamond in the rough. The body is in great shape, and it has the valuable and rare overdrive transmission. The car will need a full restoration including an engine rebuild, but if you are looking for a TR3 to do a restoration on, this car makes a lot of sense. $6,500  (stock #458)

A full comprehensive body off restoration has just been completed on this TR3 and it is stunning.  The engine has been rebuild, the overdrive transmission has also been rebuilt, and the differential has been resealed.  Suspension, and brakes have had all components replaced or rebuilt and detailed, new tires, wire wheel hubs, and new Dayton tubeless wire wheels were also fitted during the course of the restoration.  The underhood detail work is very nice and is better than new.  The car drives as a new TR3 would, it has all been redone.  Likewise the complete interior is also all new, seats, carpet, panels, dash, top, as well as new side curtains (over $1000 alone).   Bumpers, fenderbeading, wire wheel knockoffs, grill, badging, valve cover and other brightwork is new or rechromed.   The bodywork and paint is spectacular, and is most certainly one of the best TR paint/bodyjobs we have seen.   In short, this is a great little TR3 that looks stunning and is ready to enjoy.  $27,000  (stock #595)

This is a very early TR4 from Texas then Nevada, that deserves to be restored.   The body is solid but does have some bumps and bruises.   The engine runs strong.  We also rebuilt the brake and clutch hydraulic ststems and the car now runs and drives, but I wouldn't go far on 30 year old tires plus the radiator has sprung a small leak.   The car is equipped with the factory optional knockoff wire wheels, but there is also a full set of bolt-on wheels and hubcaps if you prefer that look.  The seats have been re-upholstered  in the correct pattern and look very nice, but beyond that the rest of the interior will need a full redo.  This car is a good starting point and is a fairly straightforward car to restore.   $ 5,000    (stock #596)

1963 Triumph TR4

This is a rare one!  A TR4 factory outfitted with wire wheels, overdrive transmission, and the ultra rare factory surrey top option.    This Oregon car has been in storage since 1988.  We brought it in to our shop and got the car up and running/driving again though it deserves to be properly restored.   The body is really pretty good with most of the rust evident being surface type from damp storage over the years.    The engine is strong with good oil pressure and compression, and the overdrive works.   Factory surrey top cars are extremely rare and hard to find, this is likely one of the last project surrey top cars available anywhere. $8,400   (stock #573)

1963 TR4

We purchased this TR4 from a long time owner in Oregon.  The previous owner kept the car serviced regularly at the local British car shop, and the car shows it.   The car runs and drives great with no mechanical needs.  The body has no rust and looks good,  the paint is older but is still presentable.  The interior is in similar condition, -older but still presentable.  This car is fitted with the original optional aluminium surrey top assembly which is very rare and is in nice shape.   Here is your chance to own a good running and rare car at a very reasonable price.   Priced at $13,300   (stock #602)

1963 Triumph TR4

This is a rare one.   We got this car from the original owner who bought the car new in Los Angeles.  The body condition is superb, with only one repaint over original.  The car was factory ordered with the surrey top option which is also in very nice shape.  The car has only covered 96K miles, and runs and drives great.  Lots of recent minor mechanical repairs and new tires, and we have just fitted a rebuilt overdrive gearbox.   A nice unmolested car that has been taken care of since day one that has all the right options, you won't find another like it at any price. $18,000    (stock #569)

1964 TR4A

Here is a stunning Oregon TR4A that we have just finished restoring.  The car had a bare metal respray over a clean, straight body in signal red and it looks spectacular.  The interior is all new including carpets, panel kit, leather seats, Robbins top, new padded dash components etc. This car shows and drives as if it were new.   The chrome brightwork on the car is either new or nicely preserved original, and all rubbers, seals, and soft trim bits are new.   All brakes and suspension components have either been replaced or rebuilt.   The engine has been completely rebuilt with new valves, guides, 87mm piston and liners, bearings and oil and water pumps.  The optional overdrive transmission was not rebuilt during the couse of the restoration as it is functioning properly with no issues.  The wire wheel hubs, and chrome knockoffs are all new, and both the tires and wheels were new less that 1000 miles ago.  Incredible panel fit.  $ 24,700.       (stock #312)

1965 Triumph TR4

This southern US TR4 will need a complete restoration, but is a very solid starting point.  There isn't any evidence of any previous collision damage and there aren't any rust holes or bubbling evident on the body.   There is an area around the battery area that has been replaced with new metal,  and one area of rust on the inside  of the passenger rocker panel.   The interior will need replacing but a bonus are the nice red rustfree floors.  The engine does turn over but we have not attempted to start it.  This car is a fairly straightforward restoration, that doesn't appear to be missing any parts.$3,900     (stock #563)

1966 Triumph TR4A

This is a nice one!  This dry, Washington State car was off the road for many years undergoing a partial restoration.   There is new Signal Red paint which is very nice, and the body has no rust or previous accident damage apparent.   The car has a factory surrey top fitted and has new top bows and softop insert.  The interior is nice with new carpets, and interior panels done in black with white piping.   The brakes and suspension have been rebuilt as necessary, and new tires and chrome Dayton wire wheels have been fitted.  The engine ran strong but had evidence of slight oil burning so we rebuilt it with new rings, bearings, oil pump, valves and guides.  It now runs great with strong oil pressure and compression.  This is a really sharp looking,  rare optioned Triumph that a new owner will be proud to own, drive, and show.  $21,200  (stock #580)

1966 TR4A

This California independent rear suspension TR4A needs a full restoration, but is budget priced.   The car has been off the road for many years so all the mechanical components are of unknown condition, and the engine will need a rebuild for sure.   Despite being a California car, the body does have some rust in the rocker panels, and the rear deck area, the frame doesn't show any rust apart from surface rust.  The fenders and doors are in pretty good shape, but had all been stripped to bare metal so we put a quick coat of paint on the panels to protect them from surface rust.  The car seems to be complete and doesn't have severe rust like most Canadian cars.  This makes it an ideal restoration project for someone who doesn't mind putting in sweat equity to end up with a nice relatively high dollar Triumph when completed.  $ 2,900.   (stock #598)

1967 Triumph TR4A

WOW - what a body !!!  Here is an excellent TR4A for restoration.  We brought this car back from Washington state where it had been stored for many years.  The body has primer over bare metal.  The previous owner claims no rust in the body, and I am inclined to believe him.  I can't find any rust in the body, but there is a small amount in the floors which could be patched.  The interior will need a complete redo.  The engine will also need a rebuild as it is not running.   The car is complete and doesn't appear to be missing any bits.   All in all this is a very solid TR4A needing a complete restoration without major rust repairs needed.  Those of you looking for a TR4A for restoration will know what a set of clean fenders alone would cost (if you could find them). $5,300  (stock #581)

1968 TR250

This clean bodied Texas TR250 is currently undergoing a restoration in our shop. Signal red, with a black interior. The car also has a Surrey top and a overdrive gearbox. Could be supplied with wire wheels or the factory correct Rostyle wheel covers. Price to be determined upon completion.    (stock #36)

1969 Triumph TR6

Here is a rare 1969 TR6 that we brought back from California.  The car came off the road many years ago, and will now need a total restoration.  The body is very clean with no rust evident, but we did have to replace one floor pan due to outside storage.   The original colour of the car was red, and the trunk and underhood areas still have the original paint.  The engine runs  well, but count on redoing all ancillary systems such as the fuel system, cooling, and hydraulics.  The complete interior will need replacement, but all components are available and not overly expensive.  This is a chance to restore one of the rare early 1969 TR6's with all the unique 1969 model year bits including the ultra rare Rostyle hubcaps.  A super price for a running, rust free car - just ask someone who has restored one with rust.  $5,900       (stock #555)

1970 Triumph TR6

Here is a Southern California TR6 that has been garaged for almost 20 years.  We got it up and running again, and it could be used as is with a bit of work, or as a basis for a restoration.   The drivetrain seems really strong, but the brakes are soft and will need attention.   The body is very decent with only a little bit of rust in the bottoms of the front fenders where the cowl vents drain.  There is evidence of previous body damage in the right rear fender area.  The paint is old and needs to be redone, although it is still  presentable.  The interior is old and original, and the windows in the top have yellowed.  The car is fitted with the rare optional wire wheels, and still have Michelin redline tires fitted.  This one is a winner, and look at the price.  $6,500   (stock #574)
