This is a very nice 1960 Triumph TR3a. The car was delivered new in the United States and has been in the Netherlands since 1995. The car has been fully restored and overhauled here. The work took several years and was carried out with the utmost professionalism. During the restoration, the car was equipped with a cylinder head that can run on unleaded petrol and a transmission with four gears and overdrive was installed.

The bodywork is therefore still neatly cared for. Both the chassis and the bodywork have been completely reduced to bare metal and have been repaired where necessary. The car was then completely repainted and still looks neat. The sheet metal is nice and thin and the fits are correct. The convertible top is in good condition and fits well everywhere and is easy to operate. The car stands on beautiful wire wheels with good tires in the correct sizes.

The interior was completely reupholstered at the time and still looks beautiful. The leather has a beautiful patina and the dashboard is also neatly cared for. The instruments and controls are in good condition and look good. The carpets fit neatly everywhere and things such as the steering wheel and the gear knob are all neatly cared for.

The technique was completely overhauled during the restoration and is still in good condition. The transmission shifts precisely and has fine gear ratios. Thanks to the present overdrive, covering large distances is also a pleasant activity. The 2.0 liter four-cylinder engine delivers 100 hp and makes light work of the British roadster. The chassis and brakes have been well maintained over the years and contribute to the pleasant driving experience of this Triumph.

The work carried out at the time was all neatly documented through an extensive photo series that is present with the car. In short, a well-maintained and very nice 1960 Triumph TR3a in a beautiful color combination and in good condition.
