Noel imported this car from the US as the first ‘mid-engined’ TR as the photos show and restored it meticulously himself.
In Noel’s words
“After finishing a 20 year restoration of my TR3a – TS 70144 on Saturday night, I entered the Triumph Sports Owners Association South Australia Sunday event just for fun. I won the Concourse for the TR2 -TR3B Category.
Unbelievably I also won the best overall Concourse car. This is the first time I had ever driven the car. I didn’t rebuild the car for show but just for my pleasure so it was a nice surprise.” Noel
