1963 TRIUMPH TR4 ROADSTER – MANUAL – 33,342 MILES SHOWING
The Triumph TR4 is a sports car produced by the Triumph Motor Company from 1961 to 1965. Successor to the TR3A, the TR4’s chassis and drivetrain are closely related to those of its predecessor, but with an updated body designed by Giovanni Michelotti.
The TR4’s new body, produced in Triumph’s Speke factory, does away with the cutaway door design and sloping boot lid of the previous TRs. The taller doors allow room for wind-down windows in place of the previous side-curtains, making the TR4 a true convertible. The taller, more squared-off rear body line encloses a capacious boot for a sports car.
The car’s bonnet has a power bulge or “bubble” offset to one side to clear the engine’s two carburettors. Early cars have a short bubble, while cars after CT 6429 have a longer bubble.
This example presents beautifully in Bright Red with Tan interior trim.
Subject to a restoration over many years by a retired engineer and finished in 2022, we hold some photos of the work completed.
This car comes with an aftermarket hardtop which allows a more weather proof way of enjoying your driving.
Original specification would offer standard steel wheels with hubcaps, painted wire wheels were optional. It now sports lovely 70 spoke chrome wire wheels to truly set off this classic look.
Powered by a 2.1 Litre 4 cylinder engine, it produced when new 78.2Kw and 179Nm of power and torque, delivered to the rear wheels via a 4 speed manual gearbox together with the Laycock de Normanville overdrive which is available on 2nd, 3rd & 4th gears, so effectively a 7 ratio gearbox. Performance figures suggest 0-100kph in 11.0 secs and a top speed near 175kph.
The TR4 also has a soft top and tonneau cover to complete the 3 mode look. An ideal car for car club events, show and shines, or just a classic cruise to your favourite destination.
