Highlights
- Triumph TR4 (1961–1965) – Upgraded Classic Sports Car
- The Triumph TR4, built by the Triumph Motor Company between 1961 and 1965, is a quintessential British roadster that blends vintage charm with purposeful performance. Styled by renowned Italian designer Giovanni Michelotti, the TR4 marked a bold leap forward from its predecessor, the TR3A, with more angular lines, increased cabin comfort, and a modern, practical body design—while still retaining the proven chassis and drivetrain of the earlier TR series.
- This particular TR4 has been tastefully and thoughtfully upgraded to enhance its performance, reliability, and driving character without compromising its classic appeal. It's an ideal choice for drivers who appreciate authentic British motoring with added capability for modern roads.
- Engine & Performance Enhancements:
- Stage 3 Cylinder Head Conversion:
- Featuring larger valves for improved airflow, a skimmed head for increased compression, and fully polished and gas-flowed ports to optimize performance and combustion efficiency.
- Rebuilt Engine Block:
- Provides a fresh and solid foundation, ensuring long-term durability and reliability.
- Twin Timing Chain Upgrade:
- Strengthens the valve timing system and improves high-RPM stability and lifespan.
- Fast Road Camshaft:
- Offers enhanced throttle response and delivers more power at higher engine speeds, perfect for spirited driving.
- Fuel & Ignition Upgrades:
- Carburettor Conversion:
- The original Stromberg carburettors have been replaced with twin SU units for improved tuning capability and performance. An inlet manifold from a Triumph 2.5 saloon supports the upgrade, complemented by high-flow K&N air filters.
- Electronic Ignition System:
- Replaces the conventional points system with a more reliable and consistent spark, reducing maintenance and improving ignition performance.
- Exhaust System:
- Extractor Exhaust Header:
- Enhances exhaust flow, reduces back pressure, and delivers a sportier engine note that complements the upgraded engine.
- These enhancements collectively deliver a more responsive, reliable, and engaging driving experience while preserving the tactile, analog nature that makes the TR4 a beloved classic. Whether you're carving up B-roads or attending classic car events, this upgraded Triumph TR4 offers the perfect balance of vintage style and modern drivability.
