The Triumph TR3A was built between 1957 and 1962 by the Triumph Motor Company in the United Kingdom.
The TR3A was a minor update from the TR3. The updates included the new wide front grill, exterior door handles, lockable boot handle and came with a full tool kit as standard (this was an option on the TR3).
The total production run of the TR3A was around 58,000. This makes it the third best selling TR after the TR6 and TR7.
The TR3A is often seen in Vintage and Production racing today. The TR3A, despite being almost 50 years old, is still competitive in the E-Production class of SCCA (Sports Car Club of America).
