1964 Triumph TR4 E Production

Serial Number: n/a Logbooks: SCCA, SVRA approved Condition: excellent Price: $14,500 USD Location: North Carolina, US

Description This SCCA E production car has just had a compete restoration which has resulted in the car being retrofitted with Historic-legal removable body panels, making it a rare dual-purpose production racer, SCCA or Vintage. The SCCA fibreglass flares are removable via Dzus buttons and a full set of original stock steel panels can be fitted to the same Dzus locations. The SVRA has seen the car and approved it for competition. The car has only 2 SCCA races on it since the restoration. Some work is required to make the car race ready. The pushrods were removed for inspection after the last race so valve lash needs to be set, the ignition timed, the dash panel is currently removed and the fire sytstem needs to be reinstalled. Fuel line needs to be run to the cell and the vintage panels need painting. Completion of this work could be negotiated as part of the sale.
