Short description :
TR2 slightly modified, the TR3 is the first sport car in the world to be equiped, as standard equipment, with the front disk brakes. Some minor esthetic modifictions: the front grille is changed (now at the front of the mouth), the joints (bids) between the wings and the body are now chromed (used to be painted), the same for the bonnet and boot hinges. The bonnet badge is also changed. The SU carburetors are bigger (H6 instead of H4)and the cylinder head is now a high port (to replace the low port)ort), these modifications give an additional power of 5 hp.
