DOWNLOAD EBOOK →The Triumph TR2 and TR3 were the heralds of a long-running line of Triumph Sports Cars, culminating in the futuristic TR7 of the 1970s. They were truly sporting cars, suitable for competition and enjoyable fast road motoring. The quintessential British Sports Car of the 1950s, more than 83,000 side-screen TRs were produced, which contributed greatly to British manufacturing prestige – and the postwar economy - with approximately 90% being exported, principally to the US and Canada. Triumph TR2, & TR3 - All models (including 3A & 3B) 1953 to 1962 is written with the sole aim of giving prospective buyers key knowledge to choose the best example available according to budget. It covers models TR2, TR3, TR3A, and the rare TR3B, produced between 1953 and 1962. All aspects of the car are examined in detail and with many illustrations to back up the text. There is also advice on such matters as non-period modifications. Since the 1980s, the TR models have become finite in number, much cherished by owners, and increased in value, making it very important to know and understand the points to look for and the potential pitfalls of choosing a rogue example. Having bought an imported TR3a, restoring it and preparing it for racing, the author is also a TR2/TR3 consultant for Club Triumph, and a regular contributor to its magazine, making him well-placed to guide you through finding and choosing the best model for you.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →The prototype Triumph sports car was badged 20TS and was unveiled in October 1952. It was not designated TR1 until the TR2 went into production in 1953. Later in 1954 the doors were changed, the rear brakes increased in size and a removable hardtop became optional. The TR2 gave way to the TR3 from Autumn 1955, the main change being the grille. Front wheel discs came at the end of 1956. The TR3A arrived in 1958 with a full-width grille and lockable boot. In the same year the body tooling was renewed. Rather than have the TR4 in 1964 the US market had a revised TR3, all produced in left-hand drive. This is a book of contemporary road tests, new model introductions, technical and specification data, driver's impressions, rallying, racing, second hand.
