SUMMARY

A partly completed restoration project on offer from a deceased estate. To be sold with 'No Reserve'.

DESCRIPTION

  • From 1957 on, the facelifted cars were often referred to a "TR3A"
  • Appears to be about 60% completed with the chassis and bodywork apparently finished
  • Originally registered overseas so we are assuming it's been converted from left to right-hand drive 
  • Recently painted in navy blue with what appears to be its original blue trim piped in white
  • Interested parties will need to inspect the car and form an opinion as to how much work will be required to return the TR to the road
  • On offer from a deceased estate with no paperwork apart from the V5C
  • Well presented TR3s continue to firm in the market so this could be a very worthwhile project
