https://youtu.be/UxUq3q8EcOQ
Occasionally, a highly desirable British sports car comes to market for the first time. This excellent 1966 TR4A IRS (Independent Rear Suspension) was purchased by a Virginia resident in high school in 1968 and owned until 2021.
I have owned, serviced, and restored British sports cars for 50 years. I drove an MG MGA, Triumph TR3, Spitfire, GT6, and TR6 to high school in the early ‘70s. I restored a ’54 MGTF ground up, own an Austin-Healey 3000, and have refurbished dozens of British cars. I have never had a car in a repair shop. I know these cars as well as anyone and can attest that this 1966 TR4A IRS is an excellent example of the highly desirable British mark. The car has undergone an extensive reconditioning 2022-2023.
