Known under the name TR3 "A", without this name being official with the manufacturer, this evolution of the TR3 appeared in 1957, and was recognizable by its wider grille, its door and trunk handles, while its power went up.
The example on offer is an original left-hand driver and joined the collection in 1988. It has benefited from a high-quality restoration some years ago. The elegant sky-blue paintwork is in good condition, and the underbody is sound. All-weather equipment is present: hood, side-screens, and tonneau cover. Two bucket seats with headrests and harnesses have been installed for greater safety. The upholstery was restored in 1998. The dashboard is complete, with its km/h counter located behind the original steering wheel. The engine block comes from a TR4 A and is topped with an unleaded cylinder head fitted in 2004. A high-efficiency starter, as well as an alternator and electronic ignition make it easy to use the car. An additional stabilizer bar has been adapted to improve the handling. Not having been used for about a year, the brakes will have to be checked and the battery replaced, but the mechanicals work satisfactorily, as do the clutch and the gearbox. This charming roadster will delight enthusiasts who would like to travel around in a safe car in current traffic conditions.
