This Triumph TR3A was built in 1958 and first registered in California in 1959. It left the factory in Pearl White with red leather, wire wheels, a heater and an adjustable steering column. It came to the UK in 2016 and has since been repainted green, though the dealer doesn't know when that was done.
Since arriving in Britain it has had more than £5,000 spent on it, backed by a large file of receipts. The work includes suspension changes with polyurethane bushes and Gaz front dampers. A previous owner added a rear bench seat and seat belts so the car could carry a family.
The dealer describes the cosmetic condition as very good for its age, with the odd spot of corrosion. The hood is said to be in excellent condition, and the car comes with its front bumper. It is currently shown as reserved.

The maker’s official figures for this model, not measurements of this car (Standard-Triumph factory specification (100 bhp gross, 1991cc twin-SU four). Performance and weight figures from that era come from magazine road tests, not the factory, so they're left null.).
