Description
This stunning 1962 Triumph TR4 is a standout choice for those seeking a fast road or track car rather than a purist’s classic. The previous owner upgraded it for performance, featuring an Old English White exterior paired with a striking Olive Green full leather interior. Enhancements include a 130bhp fast road engine by Canada Garage Racing, electronic ignition, an oil cooling system, alternator conversion, high-torque starter motor, electric fan, a Triumph Stag gearbox with Overdrive, lightened flywheel, braided brake and clutch hoses, drilled front discs with Greenstuff brake pads, 15-inch alloy wheels with new Continental tires, Cobra seats, a full stainless steel exhaust, and a Motolita steering wheel. The car has just under 50k miles, with the upgraded engine having covered only 1, 500 miles.
The vehicle’s history is well-documented, including a TR Register provenance record showing that it was raced in 1979 by a former owner, along with an RAC scrutineer’s pass ticket. The history file also includes restoration photographs from 2006, TR Register documents, a Heritage certificate, numerous tax discs, receipts, recent MoTs, a handwritten ownership record, and the original handbook.
Clearly pampered, this TR4 appears to have been meticulously maintained, with all work done to a high standard. It also comes with the sought-after Surrey Top, offering both hard and soft top options.
Upon starting the engine, it’s immediately apparent that this TR4 is something special. Thanks to the lightened flywheel, the engine revs quickly and responsively. On the road, the car feels solid and well put together.
If you’re looking for a fast and fun Triumph TR4 that stands out from the crowd and could double as a track day car, this could be the one. To see a video of the car please go to the website listed on this advert.
