Acquired by the seller in 2023, the car is finished in gloss black with a black vinyl soft top and rides on 15″ Minator alloy wheels. Inside, light gray leather–trimmed seats. door panels, rear seat are accompanied by a banjo-style steering wheel and refurbished gauges. Power is from an over bored 2.1-liter inline-four fitted with dual Zenith Stromberg 175CD carburetors, an aluminum radiator, and a stainless-steel exhaust system. This TR4 is now offered with a British Motor Industry Heritage Trust certificate, an owner’s handbook, build records, spare parts, a tonneau cover, and a clean North Carolina title in the seller’s name. The Giovanni Michelotti–designed body the factory painted in Signal Red and was reportedly media-blasted before being repainted in its current black finish in 2022. The car is further equipped with a driver-side mirror, a flip-up fuel-filler cap, and bumpers with over riders.
