Triumph TR4 Surrey Top

This 1964 Triumph TR4 is a right-hand-drive roadster with the Surrey top, the removable hard-top and fixed-frame arrangement that preceded the later full convertible hood. It has the 2138cc four-cylinder engine, a manual gearbox with overdrive, and wire wheels.

The car was bought as little more than a rolling chassis and restored over six years, much of it by an experienced motor engineer owner, with specialists handling paint and trim. The engine was rebuilt with new pistons, liners and bearing shells, and the head converted for unleaded fuel. The interior is now beige leather rather than the original black vinyl, and a boot rack is fitted.

Its history file includes a Heritage Certificate confirming it was built in Signal Red and sold new in Derby in May 1964, along with restoration invoices and photographs, older MOT certificates and show trophies. Recorded mileage is 41,000, with six former keepers. The dealer lists it as just arrived and still being prepared, with a service and MOT planned before sale.
