Produced between August 1961 and January 1965, the TR4 signaled the
end of one era and the beginning of a new one for Triumph. The TR4
retained the sound basic chassis design of the outgoing TR3A,
combined with completely modern and aggressive bodywork designed by
Italy's Giovanni Michelotti. Driving dynamics improved as well,
with precise rack-and-pinion steering and a synchromesh first gear.
The TR4 had a number of racing successes in America; primarily
through the efforts of the Californian engineer Kas Kastner -
including consecutive class wins at Sebring. Meanwhile in Europe
and the UK during early to mid-sixties, the TR4 became a celebrated
rally car. The model is still competitively campaigned today by
privateers in vintage racing events throughout the globe.
According to the British Motor Industry Heritage Trust, CT/32818-L
was produced as a left-hand drive, North American export example,
completed May 6, 1964 and dispatched on the 11th. Finished in New
White over Matador Red Leather and a Black top, fitted equipment
included: heater, Goodyear whitewall tires, black tonneau cover,
sunvisor, wood veneered facia and windscreen washers. The Triumph
was then shipped from Tilbury Docks, Essex aboard the vessel Kury
Lochus, to its destination dealer Genser & Forman Inc. of New
York.
Offered here is a thoroughly striking example of the versatility
these fantastic TR4's offer. Anglo-Italian design, meets functional
and comfortable period competitive driving. This particular Triumph
displays a beautifully maintained and authentic restoration with
the addition of period rally attire, for the ideal entry into
vintage automotive rally events and tours worldwide. CT/32818-L
remains numbers-matching with original engine, body and livery. The
car is exceptionally solid and honest throughout with excellent
drivability, strong mechanicals and engine compression. A 2017
comprehensive inspection and tune-up was performed on the TR4 to
assure continued instant enjoyment. Aside from the pleasant
cosmetics and healthy powerplant, the car is equipped with a host
of tastefully applied and really neat equipment for vintage
touring, this includes a triad mixed-beam Lucas driving lamps up
front for country driving, authentic "Sebring" vented fenders to
aid in cooling, factory trunk-mounted luggage rack with canvas
luggage and leather straps, rear-mounted Lucas spot lamp, period
British plates and new authentic Blockley "dog bone" tires. The
cabin appears largely stock in configuration with leather seating
and optional Triumph radio - additionally, it features quick
release period competition lab belts, Hanhart stop watches and
adjustable map lamp. The luggage compartment contains a matching
spare tire assembly, along with a Thor hammer, jack and emergency
accessories in roll. All weather equipment accompanies the Triumph:
full-cab tonneau cover, vinyl convertible top and bows, along with
the original Owner's Handbook and British Motor Industry Heritage
Trust Certificate. A fantastic example for immediate and rewarding
use - now available for inspection, delivery and worldwide
purchase.
