1968 Triumph TR250 Roadster
For consignment, a 1968 Triumph TR250 roadster with a title verified 25,510 actual miles. This car has been garaged its whole life according to our consignor who purchased it from a San Francisco collection. Included with the sale is a new in box Surrey top.
Exterior
It's a fantastic shade of dark blue, here as two stage Valencia Blue and this car has the silver nose stripe that lends contrast and an appropriate bit of sportiness. The chrome bumpers are in good condition and we love how the rear bumper wraps around the entire stretch of the rear quarter panels, while the TR250 emblems are immaculate. Our grille, door handles and brightwork overall is in show quality condition and the 15-inch chrome wire wheels wear 205/70R15 tires with a mid 2021 date code. The black canvas convertible top is in near flawless condition and the three rear plastic windows are clear. Imperfections include an area of orange peel, scuffs in the clear, chips, an area of under paint, a spattering of bubbles on the front quarter and door, and right rear quarter panel, and chips on the lower air dam.
Interior
Black door panels are neat and clean and open up to bucket seats covered in black leather that are also accented by white piping and stitched inserts, while the rear fender covers are dressed to match with the piping. The three spoke steering wheel is wood and steel and leads to a beautifully stained and shellacked wood dashboard. The speedometer and tachometer are large and simple while a cluster of four small gauges sit in the center of the dash and the glove box fits like a puzzle piece to the right. A pod of square control knobs is under the cluster and the ignition is there as well. The wood handled shifter is floor mounted in a molded plastic shroud and the parking brake is perched on the center hump between the seats. The rear shelf behind the seats is carpeted and our trunk holds the spare tire and a shelf, uncovered.
Drivetrain
Under the hood you'll find a 2.5 liter inline six cylinder rated at 106 horsepower and fueled by a pair of Su carburetors. It's mated to a 4-speed manual transmission with overdrive and power is routed to the rear axle through 3.70 gears.
Undercarriage
We find clean conditions underneath where the single exhaust system carries a stock style muffler and emits twin tail pipes out back. Power brakes are on board as front disc and rear drum and suspension consists of coil springs in front and independent trailing arms and coil springs in back.
Drive-Ability
The square body Triumphs are some of our favorites, providing a good, balanced ride and feeling a lot faster than it is due to its spry handling and low center of gravity. This one is consistent with a low mileage, well maintained example and all functions on board operate as they should. You'll find this one in our British room! While Classic Auto Mall represents that these functions were working at the time of our test drive, we cannot guarantee these functions will be working at the time of your purchase.
This generation of TR's remains popular and by a large margin, sell quicker than most here at the mall. If you are interested, we encourage you to skip the fish and chips and pick up the phone! This is a sharp little British roadster that comes with a hardtop as icing on the cake!
