This 1961 Triumph Italia is one of about 329 built between 1959 and 1962, and according to the seller is rust-free with about 1,000 km on a new motor. Styled by Michelotti and built by Vignale, underpinnings are bone-stock TR3 including the frame, suspension, brakes, engine, and gearbox. This one looks like a nice driver, and comes with ASI or Automotoclub Storico Italiano registration. Find it here on Hemmings in Florence, Italy for $130k.

The seller says that bodywork is “very well conserved with NO rust,” and condition does appear to be nice in photos. The car is missing its bumpers, and mounting holes have been filled. Trim otherwise appears to be complete, including nose and quarter panel badging. The twin, center-exit, slash-cut exhaust pipes aren’t strictly correct, but do look pretty cool.

The interior is beautifully designed and appears to be in very nice shape as well, though modern style pedal covers are about as out of place as can be. The banjo wheel with control head is standard Triumph, but no less pretty for it.

The two liter four is correct, but not original. Replaced about 1,000 kilometers ago, the seller further notes a partial mechanical restoration dating back to 2012 or so, possibly suggesting that the car has seen very little use since. There’s no word on cosmetics, but the filled bumper mount holes and fresh-looking leather seem to be evidence of prior work.

Check out the nose script. Lovely from all angles, these cars do pop up for sale with surprising regularity considering their rarity. This one looks ready for some more miles, or could be taken back to fully stock including the bumpers and exhaust.
