TR4/4A TR4 Parts?

[WedgeWorks]

Are they for a TR4 and what are they worth? Transmission is in unknown condition?

It's not a TR4 fan. Looks like TR2/3. The tranny could be from any TR2-4A without knowing the gearbox #.

Non-OD gearbox, condition unknown wouldn't be worth more than $100 (or what a buyer is willing to pay!). Fan could be worth a few bucks assuming the rivets aren't loose.

Fan looks like a TR3 unit; I believe the TR4 4-bladed fan had more squarish blades.
The round output flange I think makes the gearbox a later unit, like maybe TR6. There should be some numbers stamped on one of the clutch shaft bosses, that will indicate where the casting came from. But it will fit earlier cars with some slight mods (I've got a late TR6 box in my TR3).

I'd say $20 for the fan & $100 for the gearbox; although you might get more from an optimist.

I was thinking Paper Weight..............

Great for holding buoys in the proper location.
Might be a little dirty for paper.

If you're starting a gearbox collection, I've got 4 more in clean working condition that no one wants. $100 for one would be like Christmas.

I was hoping to see an overdrive hanging off the butt end, oh well!

The fan blade could be from a TR2 through TR4. The early spatula blades were used for the TR4 until about July 1963 at engine number CT 21471 E. At that engine number the blades were changed to a slightly larger, more rectangular shape. However, at the same time, Triumph issued a service bulletin that authorized dealers to retrofit the new fan to older vehicles if the customer complained about overheating in congested traffic conditions. The fan could be worth trying to sell IF the rivets are tight and the aluminum blades are not bent, nicked or otherwise damaged.

As stated above in an earlier post, the transmission will have a number stamped on the other side of the bellhousing. It will be on the top side of a projection where the clutch bellhousing meets the gear housing. The number will have a 2 or 3 alpha prefix. This prefix would tell you which model the transmission was made for. I agree that the transmission probably would not be of any great value. TR transmissions are generally very rugged and many are still available.
