Several. One such is
http://www.vtr.org/TR2/TR2-production.html
which gives TS41630 as the first car completed in 1959. Another is Bill
Piggott's book, Original Triumph TR2/3/3A, which gives it as TS41668. Even
though they don't agree, it seem likely your car was completed late in 1958.
> title says I have a 59
I think if you'll look closely, you'll see that your title only has spaces
for "model year" and "year first sold". CA titles do not have a "year
built" field, I don't know of any state that does.

Just out of curiosity, what things are you finding ? AFAIK, there were no
changes made between the last car in 1958 and the first car in 1959 ...

Most likely, it didn't even make it to the US before 1959.

Nothing to fix ...
