I remember back in the mid 70's, that interest in the TR-3 was pretty
solid, but the TR-4 was really considered just a parts donor to keep the
3's going. You could buy a running TR3 for about $500, but a similiar
condition TR4 would bring just a couple hundred.
I'm afraid that the 4's were cannabalized. Not many are left.
Sad,

Subject: Observation @ VTR
A recent thread on the "Triumph List" indicates a significant absence of
TR4/TR4As.
Jack Drews and I made this observation at the VTR Convention. We were very
surprised that they were hard to find in the parking lot at the hotel.
A bit mind boggling....why is this and why are they being hid out?
Not as classic as a TR3 and not as "new" as a TR6, but quite civilized as
drivers. Why are they staying away in droves?
