This 1968 Triumph TR250 was produced in September of 1968 and is powered by a 2.5L inline-six coupled with a 4-speed manual transmission with overdrive.
The 2.5L inline-six has been professionally rebuilt.
A mild cam was installed, and triple 40mm Weber carburetors were fitted in place of the original Zenith-Stromberg units.
Shifting is through a rebuilt 4-speed manual gearbox fitted with an optional Laycock A-type electric overdrive.
Additional upgrades included a header exhaust setup, handcrafted aluminum air intake box, larger capacity radiator, oil cooler, and a conventional spin-on oil filter.
New fuel lines, hoses, and wiring harness were also installed during the build.
The car was last serviced with an oil/filter change in May 2023.
Prior to the build’s completion in 1999, the springs, shocks, rotors, calipers, brake lines, bearings, tie-rod ends, and steering rack were all either replaced, rebuilt, or powder coated.
The one-year-only US-market TR250 was a carbureted version of the UK fuel-injected TR5 and a stopgap between the TR4 and the TR6 for 1969.
A repaint in the original Jasmine Yellow was completed in the late 1990s.
A Surrey hardtop has been painted to match the body.
The top has two removable center options: a soft expandable center that is stored in the trunk when not in use, and a two-piece aluminum hardtop sourced from the UK.
A new vinyl softtop with frame is also included.
15″ Minilite-style wheels wear Michelin XVS-P tires.
Trim includes abbreviated chrome side spears and cream-colored TR250 badging.
The black interior features a set of modern leather seats and three-point retractable seatbelts.
The original non-headrest seats were rebuilt and are included in the sale.
A leather-wrapped steering wheel is accompanied by wood trim on the dash and a wooden shift knob.
The Smiths and Lucas gauges were rebuilt by Nisonger Instruments with the 5-digit odometer.
The odometer now shows 61k miles.
