just be sure to give it a really long test drive. I bought mine not running (with a very clean body) and it's amazing how much stuff is wrong that you'd never know about. Hopefully the front wheel won't fall off the first day you drive it

Oh My God...you fellows just are not going to believe this...I was just looking threw my old post and talk about dajavu...As I finally purchased this...what I found out to be a 1963 TR3b...I was driving home from Victoria..Taking the Ferry Bla Bla Bla...I get to Ladner and everything seems fine. As I live about 1 hour away I was looking forward to the drive home and it was a glorius sunny day. About 25 minutes into the drive I start to hear a clicking sound. I pull over and check all around and cannot see anything wrong so off I go. A little farther down the road the sound comes back so I pull over and check all the knock offs still nothing. I'm in Langley and at a very busy intersection. Light changes and I step on the gas and the front drivers wheel falls right off...BANG..I'm nose out in the intersection cars beeping line ups no tools and no jack. The Police show up and want to tow my LBC away and I am not so calm at this point. Thank god for this very nice fellow who used to own a TR3 for stopping to help me get the car back on the road. It would seem that there was no locktight used on the tapperd nuts that held the spline on to the hub and that they had loosend themselves and fallen off. This was the mysterious clicking sound. Anyway all is well and I was blowen away to read JSNEDDON's last post to me. There really is a TRIUMPH GOD...Best wishes to you all regards Gary.
