TR4/4A 1965 Popular Mechanics TR-4A Article

Whilst cleaning out the office space I had recently acquired from an older dentist, I came across some old Popular Mechanics magazines. As I thumbed through them I found some fun articles and ads. Below is one of them:



Enjoy!
I will post others.

Thanks!! That was a fun read. Classic and Sports Car has a 4/4A buyer's guide this month. After reading both of these, I am ready to buy another one!!

I have a June 1962 issue of Popular Mechanics with the "Spotlight on The Triumph TR4" It describes the car and mentions the TR3 as being still available. I look through old magazines at the junk stores, love the ads.

I don't want to be a spoiler, but is it alright to post up pictures of these, any copyright problems?

I like the part where he complains it took him 2 minutes 24 seconds to get the top up on the old TR4 -- if I hurry I *might* get it done in 15 minutes.

As for comparing the cornering of the new IRS against a TR4 running on snow tires, well that is just lame.

I agree with Geo.

I had a '64 TR4 and it was easily a superior car in the corners over both the '67 GT6 I had and the '76 TR6 I have now.
