Well it's been at least 5 years since we started the TR3.
Now, it's so close to completion, I thought I'd share some photos. I know it's not a stock color but it is a '60s color at least

interior will be beige leather. the dash is leather but the gauge pod is beryl wood and so will the glove box be beryl wood. There's a picture in the gallery of it finished.
The color is a Volkswagen color, Mango with 3 coats of clear coat.
Every nut and bolt was removed during the restoration. These are crazy little cars!
