1964 Triumph TR4 For Sale

The 1964 Triumph TR4 is a fun motoring experience.

The design and performance of the TR-4 made it the perfect British sports car, in fact over 60,000 TRs had been sold in America when this model was manufactured. This one in particular was lovingly restored to better-than-OEM performance by my late Uncle Fred in the 90�s and lovingly maintained.

Fred was a pilot in the Navy and fought in Vietnam; later he flew for United Airlines as a captain. I acquired his TR-4, which he named �Emma Peel�, after the British 1960s television series, �The Avengers�. Fred truly enjoyed his TR-4 as he drove through the Rocky Mountains and in his words, �the high-performance engine is happiest when she's running at over 3,000 rpms�.

Living at sea level in North Carolina, I immediately set out to find a mechanic experienced and qualified to make necessary adjustments with the carburetor, since Emma was used to living at 8,000 feet above sea level. Tom Nelson at TJ�s Auto in Smithfield, North Carolina (www. tjauto-), has lovingly made

adjustments to Emma and although she doesn�t like to idle alone, (due to the high-performance cam modification), she warms up in about 10 minutes and is ready to roll.

Tom has restored many antique and foreign classic cars; he would be happy to answer any questions you may have about this model. In addition, Uncle Fred kept meticulous maintenance and repair records for review. The body was painted a warm beige and is actually �Ford Truck White�, the chrome is in very good condition. A brown soft top is manually operated and a full zippered tonneau cover snaps in place perfectly. My husband and I enjoyed our rides in the country but now it's time to part with Emma. I know the next owner will enjoy driving this wonderful classic automobile for years.
