1958 TRIUPMH TR3-A RESTORATION PROJECT , NO RESERVE

1958 Triumph TR3 Description

YOU ARE BIDDING ON A 1958 TRIUMPH TR3-A THAT I AM SELLING FOR A CUSTOMER. IT HAD BEEN IN HIS FAMILY FOR MANY YEARS AND HE THOUGHT HE'D LIKE TO HAVE IT RESTORED. HIS FATHER HAD TAKEN THE BODY APART AND OFF THE FRAME. THAT'S AS FAR AS IT GOT. ALL GOOD INTENTIONS BUT WHEN THEY GET THAT FAR AND HAVE NO REAL RESTORATION TALENTS, THIS IS USUALLY WHAT HAPPENS. THE PROJECT STALLS. IT'S ALWAYS EASY TO TAKE APART WHEN YOU HAVE BIG DREAMS.
THE CUSTOMER ROUGH RE ASSEMBLED THE BODY LOOSELY ON THE FRAME AND IT WAS BROUGHT TO ME TO DO THE RESTORATION. WHEN I GAVE HIM A QUOTE TO DO A PROPER RESTORATIO, HE DECIDED IT WAS EASIER TO BUY A FINISHED CAR AND HAS LEFT IT TO US TO SELL FOR HIM.
THE BODY NEEDS PLENTY OF TYPICAL BODY WORK ON ALL THE PANELS. THE FLOORS NEED TO BE REPLACED. WE DID GET THE ENGINE STARTED. IT NEEDS A TOTAL RESTORATION. MANY SMALL PARTS ARE MISSING BUT MOST ARE PARTS YOU'D REPLACE WHEN YOU DO A PROPER RESTORATION. IT ONLY HAS THE INSTRUMENTS THAT ARE SHOWN. HE LOST THE OTHERS....
PLEASE ASK QUESTIONS BEFORE BIDDING. I'M NOT TRYING TO HIDE ANY DETAILS BUT IF YOU DON'T KNOW AN ANSWER TO A QUESTION YOU HAVE, PLEASE ASK BEFORE BIDDING.
THE CAR DOES HAVE A CLEAR OPEN PENNSYLVANIA TITLE. I HAVE THAT IN MY HANDS.
LOW STARTING PRICE WITH NO RESERVE. THIS CAR MUST SELL AS MY CUSTOMER ISN'T GOING TO HAVE IT RESTORED AND HAS NO PLACE TO STORE IT. I HAVE NO PLACE TO STORE IT INDOORS EITHER. IT WILL BE KEPT OUTDOORS UNDER A GOOD CAR COVER UNTIL IT'S PICK UP. THE CAR COVER DOES NOT COMES WITH THE DEAL UNLESS YOU WANT TO PAY EXTRA.
THE CAR IS IN A LOCAL LISTING FOR MUCH MORE AND I RESERVE THE RIGHT TO REMOVE IT OFF EBAY IF IT SELLS.
A $500.00 NON REFUNDABLE DEPOSIT IS DUE WITHIN 3 DAYS AFTER THE AUCTION ENDS
THE BALANCE IS DUE IN FULL WITHIN 2 WEEKS. I WILL STORE THE CA, NO CHARG, FOR THOSE 2 WEEKS. IF IT HAS TO STAY LONGER A STORAGE FEE WILL BE CHARGED. IF IT'S A TRANSPORTATION / SHIPPER DELA, WE CAN WORK SOMETHING OUT.
FINAL PAYMENT IS DUE IN CASH OR BY WIRE TRANSFER. IF YOU PLAN TO PAY BY ANY KIND OF A CHEC, THE CHECK WILL HAVE TO CLEAR BEFORE THE CAR WILL BE RELEASED. THIS INCLUDES BANK TRANSFERS. WHEN THE BANK SAYS THE MONEY IS IN MY ACCOUN, THE CAR CAN BE TAKEN. I'VE RUN INTO A FEW SCAMMERS OVER THE 45 YEARS I'VE BEEN IN BUSINESS AND THIS WILL KEEP THINGS ON THE UP AND UP.
I DO KNOW A SHIPPER THAT CAN HANDLE ALL THE PAPERWORK AND TRANSPORTATION OF THIS CAR OVER SEAS IF YOU NEED ONE. I'D RATHER YOU TAKE CARE OF THAT YOURSEL, BUT IF NEEDED I CAN PUT YOU IN TOUCH WITH THEM.
THANK YOU FOR LOOKING.
