Colour dark blue combined with a red leather interior trimmed with black carpet and black rubber protective mats. Black vinyl hood, hood cover and side screen frames. This wonderful Triumph TR 3 was sold new to the United States. In the year 1997 the car was imported to the Netherlands.

This early Triumph TR 3 with the ‘small mouth’ grille is in superb condition, the high quality of the restoration is obvious. The car shows all the original details, and the bodywork shows a perfect panel fit. This gorgeous TR 3 features wire wheels shod with 165/15 Vredestein classic tyres and overdrive. This Triumph TR 3 displays a wonderful colour scheme and the car drives, shifts, brakes, and handles perfectly. The 1957 TR 3 is eligible to participate in the yearly Mille Miglia historic reliability event. This is a sought-after ‘small mouth’ TR 3 in top condition!
