We have just rescued this lovely old TR3 from a local gentlemans garage.....

 

If you want to follow the progress of the restoration then go to my website and click TR2 / TR3's For Sale.....(it isn't for sale by the way)

Hello Marko,

 

This is nice!!!!!! It looks to be in pretty good shape (or isn't it?). Do you have additional info about the car? Chassis number, original colour (blue perhaps according to the RH rear wheel?) etc. I've bookmarked your website to follow the restoration.

It's a great project Menno.....

 

Some work was already completed (20 years ago)

 

The chassis and running gear was done and then the car was then stored for a very long time.....

 

The original colour I believe was white but was changed to powder blue a long time ago..............

 

It will be prepared before going to Surface Processing in the midlands for a chemical dip and primer bath!

 

Keep you posted!

I guess it is what we all dream about finding.

 

Nice registration number too.

 

Where does Marko keep finding them from? - I reckon his network is better developed than MI5 :)

 

Regards

An excellent find indeed.

Judging by the state of the seats, it's had very careful use during

its life. Those seats could even be cleaned and re-padded - a

sympathetic restoration,perhaps.

 

I think it's hard work that brings marko his 'luck' - the

advertising and thousands of miles does pay dividends.
