Tim T Posted May 4, 2018 Report Share Posted May 4, 2018 I have been sorting out boxes of parts supplied when I bought my 3a in 2011 and wondered if anybody could tell me what the attached are. Many thanks, Tim Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Hamish Posted May 4, 2018 Report Share Posted May 4, 2018 (edited) Educated guess 1 top of windscreen hard Top fixings 2 oil filter housing and bolt ( modified with outlet ?!) 3 bracket for floor mounted headlight dip switch. Edited May 4, 2018 by Hamish Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Don H. Posted May 4, 2018 Report Share Posted May 4, 2018 (edited) First one: hardtop mounting brackets, I believe. Second: oil filter canister housing with some sort of mod. Third: kick-panel mounting bracket for headlamp dip switch. Edited May 4, 2018 by Don H. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Geko Posted May 4, 2018 Report Share Posted May 4, 2018 (edited) The bracket could be for a vitesse or Spitfire too, brake master cylinder Edited May 4, 2018 by Geko Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mark69 Posted May 4, 2018 Report Share Posted May 4, 2018 Not sure what the top two are ,but the bottom one looks like a clutch master cylinder bracket. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Tim T Posted May 4, 2018 Author Report Share Posted May 4, 2018 It appears everybody loves a quiz! As John says 20 minutes for responses from 3 corners of the world - impressive! Still not convinced with the bracket though, the others descriptions seem spot on. Many thanks, Tim Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Hamish Posted May 4, 2018 Report Share Posted May 4, 2018 The last pic bracket. Not sure its either dip switch or clutch slave for a 3a. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ian Vincent Posted May 4, 2018 Report Share Posted May 4, 2018 The bracket is for the dip switch on a LHD car. Rgds Ian Quote Link to post Share on other sites
EdwinTiben Posted May 4, 2018 Report Share Posted May 4, 2018 (edited) I have exact the same bracket on my GT6 Mark 1 and tr4. Havent seen it on a tr3. its a poor quality picture but here's the bracket used on the master brake cylinder on my gt6. Edited May 4, 2018 by EdwinTiben Quote Link to post Share on other sites
EdwinTiben Posted May 4, 2018 Report Share Posted May 4, 2018 The bracket is for the dip switch on a LHD car. Rgds Ian Thats a different shape: Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Don H. Posted May 4, 2018 Report Share Posted May 4, 2018 (edited) It's NOT the dip switch bracket that came on my late TR3B. Looks like none of the master or slave brackets on a sidescreen either as far as I know. Here's a poor shot of my car's original dip switch bracket prior to restoration. For this switch: Edited May 4, 2018 by Don H. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MJF Posted May 4, 2018 Report Share Posted May 4, 2018 Pic 3 looks like the clutch master cylinder bracket from a TR6 to me. Martin Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Charlie D Posted May 4, 2018 Report Share Posted May 4, 2018 (edited) Pic 3 is for the master cylinders (Brake and Clutch) on Heralds/Vtesses/Spitfires/GT6s and, of course, The Burlington Arrow/Berretta/SS/Chieftain. Charlie. Edited May 4, 2018 by Charlie D Quote Link to post Share on other sites
