[Lift-a-Dot Door Fasteners]

I have a 1960 post 60,000 3A. Regarding the Lift-a-Dot door fasteners. Are these secured to the door skin with nuts or do they just screw into the skin?

The Moss catalogue does not show any internal fixing screws.

+1 for the above good advice.  I would certainly repair mine rather than buy an inferior replacement.

Orange flame on the Colortune usually means too rich a mixture or the engine is burning oil.

[Buying advice pls]

Hi Glen ~

I'd strongly advise you to try and take a member of the Register with you who knows about TR's. Please don't go in 'blind'.

I'd have reservations about the plated chassis in particular. 

Another mystery ~ if it's an American TR how come it's right hand drive??

Hi Ralph ~

I'd personally go for the BRG (HAA) in the centre of the panel.

Hi RogerH ~

Leave Tom out of it!!     

I well remember in the late 50's an Austin Healey '100' had collided with a stone wall and one side of the front aluminium shroud had buckled badly.

Our resident 'Tin Basher' was able to straighten it out with his hammer and dolly to a perfect finish. That man was a true artisan.
