Having lost a storage space where I kept six of my favorite collector cars, am down to selling one that is really going to hurt. This is one of the happiest, un Triumphs I have ever owned, nd I have had quite a few. My TR4A IRS drives like a dream. I have owned it for about five years during which time I overhauled the engine, nd took it down to the IRS chassis which is rust free, ery solid and in excellent condition. This car has no rust anywhere, nd has enjoyed a complete repaint in its original color which I believe is called Sapphire Blue. The rockers, loors, runk, rame rails etc are all in outstanding rust free condition.I have never pulled a Heritage Certificate on the car, ut have some pictures of the original owner with the car in the early seventies and we got it right. The car has the LO suffix but is NOT fitted with an overdrive transmission. This is easily remedied if desired, ut the gearbox is so nice and the car drives so sweetly, hesitate to mess with it, ven for an overdrive. Obviously on assembly I did the front suspension, ll hydraulics new including calipers, ylinders, lutch master and slave, tc. New clutch, tarter, ull new wiring harness, nd the carburetors, iper motor, uel pump etc were all rebuilt and a new water pump. Many TR4As had Stromberg carburetors but this one has SUs which are much nicer and perform very well. ALL the gauges work, nd the car is a pleasure to drive. It has a brand new radiator, ounted without an engine driven fan, nd is cooled by a large electric fan which keeps the car quite cool in stop and go and can be switched off on the highway. The exhaust system has all been replaced and done to a very nice quality with fresh dual chrome tips. The sound is delightful, nd not overly noisy. The original AM radio works; the car has all its sun visors in xlnt condition, nd a new Talbot style side mirror. The paint was done to a very high standard about two years ago and looks fabulous. The seats were all redone and the car has the rare back seat as well as new carpet throughout, ew dash top and crash pads, nd refinished original wood. It has a really nice Hartz Stayfast Canvas top which does not wrinkle and always looks so pretty and snug, nd also its correct Tonneau full cover, nd the convertible top down cover or "boot" cover. All five wire wheels are in wonderful shape, nd an excellent spare and four Brand New radial tires. The eared style knock offs are also beautiful new ones all around. This car was just recently at the west coast Triumph show with a good 300 miles of driving put on it during the week, nd has made many other long trips with delightful and trouble free results. Its just a happy car; not a fussy car, nd one that a new owner can do little things to and make better and better. Its been in California most of its life, nd has very nice chrome bumpers and lighting fixtures which all work well. The glass is all clean and clear, he full carpeting is new and the windshield rubber surround, nd frame to body are all new as are the door fuzzy seals. Lots of money spent that I wont get back but a great car for someone. Reserve very reasonable and great support for transportation or otherwise. Ask questions or for any other pictures.
