Guest djangojim Posted June 17, 2005 Report Share Posted June 17, 2005 Does anyone have any knowledge of the fate of my first TR, an early long door TR2 in Signal Red with white hardtop? Unfortunately, at the time I owned her in the eary 60's I was unaware of important matters like commission numbers etc but the registration was 788 BTB, and if I remember correctly it was first registered in Nottingham. I suspect the number, like so many others now adorns some 4 x 4 monstrosity or similar. Bill Piggott tried a search for me a couple of years ago but with no success. Any info appreciated as I never did have a photo of the old girl. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
John Saunders Posted July 1, 2005 Report Share Posted July 1, 2005 Hi there, No info. to give you about the fate of your car, but are you certain about the Regn.? 788 BTB was issued in Lancashire in 1957 according to Glasses Guide to Registrations. Your car may have been re-registered of course, but as a long door, it should have been registered pre October 1954 approx. Dont know if this helps. If you want to learn more about the car from this registration,(presuming it is correct) then if you contact the Preston Archives Offices, then they will supply you with whatever details they have. Phone 01772 263034, fax 01772 263050. all the best, john S Quote Link to post Share on other sites
