History: I have owned this car since 1977 and have worked on it over the years to get it in tip/top shape. It has always been garage kept. As it stands now, he car is 90% there - what it needs is interior work.
In the 80's the car saw an engine and trany rebuild with new clutch. These components have at most 500 miles on them. The clutch and brake master cylinders are new as is the fuel pump. The wiper motor and carbs have been overhauled by NH's expert British Car rebuilder. The radiator has been overhauled - all rubber hoses replaced. The car runs and drives (the engine pics show the engine running - note the moving fan blade).
The dash is hand made of a solid piece of bird's Eye maple - It looks beautiful.
The paint job (costing in excess of $5000) is a work of art. The body parts for this car were purchased separately from rust-free western cars and include 4 original TR4 solid fenders, doors, trunk lid, nd a pristine hood (with no leading-end cracks). The rocker panels where replaced with Roadster Factory panels. All these parts then had their original paint stripped off down to the metal. Then the panels were individually painted and then bolted back on the car.
You can tell the quality of the paint job by looking at the reflection of the trees and grass in the pictures - notice NO waves in the mirroring!
The white stripe is NOT an applied vinyl sticker - it is part of the new paint job.
The paint color is called "Indigo Blue" (pearl coat). This color is very close to the original blue of the TR4A, ut much more eye catching.

. Car has no carpet.
. Car seats need to be redone (I have the leather seat covers, ut not the foam, tc).

What else:
. 6 boxes of original parts, ncluding original AM radio, riginal jugs and pistons.
rocker arms, lus many other parts too numerous to mention.

You can probably guess I'm not going to let this car go for a song, ut if you seriously want a show quality car, nd are willing to complete the job, his is the one to get.
This car is sold, S IS, here IS.
