Introduction
1957 Triumph TR33-1-23
The story here is that this TR3 was purchased back in the early 2000’s by a man that had a dream to get one restored. He sent it to a shop in Union Bridge MD for a restoration but unfortunately ran out of funds to complete the restoration. The body was restored and the chassis painted but the engine, transmission and interior were not yet installed. It was carefully wrapped in protective bubble wrap and stored in a rental unit until he unfortunately passed away before the car could be completed. I bought the car and have been assembling it around other projects, getting an overdrive transmission built and installed, detailing the rebuilt engine and getting a custom red leather interior made for the car. Will be a stunning example of a small mouth TR3 when it is completed.
