Rallye Car

In 1962 the Standard Triumph company decided to promote sales of their cars by taking part in numerous international rallies. To do this four of the new Triumph TR4 model were used, after the extensive modifications that were needed in order to meet the difficult requirements of rallying. The TR4 was a successful rally car in its day, even though it failed to become an overall winner. The four cars used were right-hand drive to begin with and were given the designations 3VC, 4VC, 5VC and 6VC. In 1965 the 3VC, 5VC and 6VC were shipped over to the USA to take part in one last rally, the "Shell 4000" Trans-Canada. These three cars had been changed over to left-hand drive before they left so that they could later be sold in the USA. The TR4 5VC was the team car no. 1 and was piloted by the Swiss rally driver Jean-Jacques Thuner and his navigator John Gretener in no less than eleven international rallies. The team secured some 2nd and 3rd places, including second place in the 1963 Monte Carlo Rally. In the last rally representing the works, the Canadian Shell 4000, the co-pilot was Roy Fidler. The TR4 starting with number 155 ended the rally in 21st place overall and 2nd place in the team standings.
