I've loved the car, had my mechanic care for it (and he is truly a gifted mechanic). NOTE: I'm not an expert on this car! I've relied on others notes and can't attest to any information provided. Underneath, though, the car carried the Bs optional 2138 cc inline4 that produced 105 hp. The TR3B (again, never referred to as such by the company) was produced during the 1962 model year, and was externally identical to the TR3A.
1962 TRIUMPH TR3A PLUS
In 1957, additional cosmetic changes brought about the introduction of the TR3A, complete with new front-end styling with a full-width grille incorporating sidelights/indicators, and locking door and trunk handles plus an improved interior. By mid-1956, a new cylinder head had brought horsepower up to 100, and then in August, Girling front disc brakes were introduced. The suspension was comprised of double A-arms with coil springs and tube shock absorbers. It came with a 95 horsepower, five more than the TR2, and an 'egg box' radiator grille that was among the most distinguishable features of the new model. It was a classic British Roadster with long body lines, low cut doors, and sports car handling characteristics. A traditional roadster, the TR3 is an evolution of the company's earlier TR2 model, wi. The Triumph TR3 was introduced in October of 1955 and it closely followed the mold established by the TR2. The Triumph TR3 is a British sports car produced between 19 by the Standard-Triumph Motor Company of Coventry, England. The TR3 that followed represented evolution rather than revolution, as to not disturb the sales enthusiasm. Introduced in March of 1953 at the Geneva Motor Show, it became an enormous success both at home and abroad. Triumph developed the TR2 sports car to compete with those of MG and Jaguar.
