TR4Tony VC Posted February 15, 2021 Report Share Posted February 15, 2021 Hi all I would be interested to hear from the owner of my old 3a BRX448 which I last saw being sold after restoration by a garage in York I think ? It was painted grey. This car was particularly interesting as when I found it, some sort of sporting history was evident as it had been fitted with a number of very early SAH bits and had a few modifications that hinted at racing. Easy to spot was the vented fibreglass bonnet, the pulled back inner wing, the long trumpets on the SU carbs, the electric fuel pump and the high lift cam. Sadly another car that I didn’t get to whilst spending my time chasing the trail of a certain powder blue TR4 across the USA. regards Tony Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bfg Posted February 15, 2021 Report Share Posted February 15, 2021 (edited) I don't know of your former car but as an engine-bay pervert I did save a few photos of a green sidescreen TR with the pulled back inner wings for its long trumpets. Was this a common modification ? or perhaps it is the same car which may then be found through an internet search of the photos ? The bonnet is also of fibreglass, and it has an electric fuel pump.

Pete This is Paul Hogans TR3S engine bay. A rather different beast to Tonys old 3a. Iain Quote Link to post Share on other sites
