We have seen for sale just about everywhere in the last 2 years.  I find that dealing with sellers like this is just a complete waste of time.  $17,000 is a lot of money for an unfinished project of this sort. It has been heavily modified and will never be viewed at the same value as a truly restored car by the collectors who pay a premium for originality.

The gap between what’s here and a finished car is potentially a lot of work and some surprises.   https://bringatrailer.com/listing/1964-triumph-tr4-4/
