1967 Triumph TR4A - DELIVERY INCLUDED*

Returning to The Forge Prees is this very well-presented Triumph TR4A, a strong and highly usable example that comes back to us in superb cosmetic and mechanical condition.

We originally sourced and supplied this car in late summer 2025 to a local retired aircraft engineer and keen classic car enthusiast. During his ownership, the car benefited from significant mechanical improvement, carried out to a very high standard and clearly reflective of his knowledge and attention to detail. A detailed summary of this work is listed below.

Built in 1967 and originally supplied to the US market, the TR4A was imported into the UK in 1990. At that time, it was noted to be a particularly original example, with a clean, rust-free chassis and body that had never required major structural restoration. Note that this is a fixed rear axle car, not IRS.

Following its arrival in the UK, the car was converted to right-hand drive and recommissioned for regular use. Invoices from the early 1990s document this work, and supporting MOT history confirms that the car has covered limited mileage since.

Maintenance has been consistent over the last three decades, with more recent investment focusing on mechanical reliability and drivability. Notable work prior to our supply included a new clutch and pressure plate, clutch and brake master cylinders, front discs and pads, rear wheel cylinders and shoes, and new dampers front and rear. Between 2022 and 2024, further improvements included upgraded seats, ball joints, track rod ends, a full stainless steel exhaust system, rebuilt front calipers, and a set of Continental tyres.

Today, the TR4A is in excellent mechanical health. The engine performs very well, with strong oil pressure and eager power delivery. The overdrive-equipped gearbox is smooth and positive, and on the road the car feels composed, responsive, and confidence-inspiring. It’s the sort of TR that encourages regular use—ideal for touring, weekend drives, or classic events.

Cosmetically, the car presents well overall. The paintwork retains a good shine with an even finish, and the body appears straight with consistent panel fit. There are some age-related marks and a small amount of micro-blistering in places, as would be expected. The chrome is in good condition overall, with some patina to the rear bumper. The Surrey top is also in good condition. Inside, the cabin is clean and tidy, retaining its period character while benefiting from a few thoughtful comfort upgrades. The dashboard has been vinyl wrapped by a previous owner. The engine bay is well presented, and underneath the car appears structurally sound, with solid chassis rails and floor pans. The underside has also been treated with oil for protection.

Overall, this is a very well-sorted Triumph TR4A with a strong mechanical foundation and very presentable cosmetics. It is not a freshly restored car, but one that has been carefully maintained and improved in all the right areas—making it an honest, dependable, and thoroughly enjoyable classic to own and drive.

At The Forge Prees, we specialise in classic, vintage and enthusiast vehicles. Every vehicle we offer is unique, with its own history, character and, inevitably, its own imperfections. Unlike modern vehicles, classic cars require a different approach to ownership, maintenance and care, as well as an appreciation of their individual quirks.

We pride ourselves on providing honest, detailed descriptions of every vehicle, supported by extensive photography and video. Our aim is to give prospective purchasers as much information as possible, allowing you to make a considered and informed decision before buying.

We strongly encourage all prospective purchasers to carry out their own inspections and research, and to ensure they are fully satisfied with the vehicle’s condition, history and ongoing requirements before committing to purchase. Absolutely any inspection is welcome, and we are happy to facilitate independent inspections by prior arrangement.

Before purchasing a vehicle from The Forge, please take the time to read our Terms of Sale, which are available on our website. Alternatively, please contact us directly and we will be happy to provide a copy.
