[TR3 RHD LHD PEDAL ASSY.]

Hi Guys.

 

Could anyone tell me if the Pedal Assy on RHD and LHD TR3 are the same unit. We can't see why they wouldn't be but would rather check it out first.

 

Any help greatly received.

 

Thanks

[ORIGINAL OWNERSHIP]

Brilliant guys thank you so much.

[ORIGINAL OWNERSHIP]

Hi Fellas.

 

i have a RHD 1959 TR3a. On the log book the first entry is a UK address in 1963. It states on the Heritage Certificate that the car when new went for 'Private Export' but does not list anything further. I am trying to build up the history file on this car and wondered if anyone knew if there was a way to find out who the original owner was?

 

Any help as always gratefully received.

 

Thank you

 

Ian

[Selling TR3 V5 without car?]

It looks like Ebay have heard your concerns and it has been taken down before the auction had finished. I still find it a VERY grey area!!

[Selling TR3 V5 without car?]

I am struggling with this 1 if I'm honest. Whilst I can quite understand the potential for theft of a vehicle and using the V5 for transferring the vehicles identity isn't it just the same as if you buy a basket case that is more rust than anything? Surely the same thing could happen? Just throw away the rust and keep the V5 for transferring?

 

We have a project on at the moment where the chassis needs replacing the engine has already been replaced at sometime in the distant past and the body panels are pretty much all shot. We will rebuild this vehicle with parts from donor cars and at the end probably only 5- 10% will be original factory fitted parts. I don't really see where this is that much different to selling a V5 without the parts?

 

 

 

 

[USA Road Tar?]

Great thanks guys. We will give them all a whirl and see what works best for us.

 

Thanks a lot.

 

Ian

[USA Road Tar?]

Could anyone help with a solution?

 

We have a few TR's in from the USA and have noticed that there is a lot of what we are classing as a Tar or like Underseal on the chassis and running gear.

 

Does anyone know what it is and also if there is any solvent or chemical we could use to dissolve it?

 

Any help greatly appreciated.

 

Thanks

[Rebound Bracket. TR3.]

Bob thats brilliant thank you so much. We got a lot to learn. Thanks for your help.

[Rebound Bracket. TR3.]

Hi all.

 

Just signed up with TR Register as we have a few Triumphs that we are now restoring for our own collection.

 

Could anyone give us a bit of help in the right direction for 'Rebound brackets' for a TR3. Rimmers state that they are no longer available?

 

Thanks for any help.

 

Regards
