Part Id??

[apbos]

Just got a box of parts for my TR3a and these were in the box. So far I cannot say what they are for. Any Ideas?

I just did a frame off resto on my TR3A, and don't recall seeing anything like that one the car.

It does look like something the British would use though! :laugh:

Might it be for a hardtop?

Removable luggage rack hold-down bolts. I might be interested in them if you don't need them!

I'll throw them into the ultrasonic cleaner and send you pics when the are clean. Do you have any pics on how they are used in an original car?

I agree with Andrew, they're luggage rack hardware.

The slanted pieces on my rack (uninstalled) are pitted and the chrome is flaking. If anyone has the slanted pieces, I'm also interested. I have the rest in new hardware.

Just got rid of a boot lid I think with those installed as a matter of fact - if they are the same I do believe you have to drill into the lid.

I couldn't find any pictures on the 'net of this rack, and my own digital camera is down for the count. I can tell you that it's the type of rack that requires four holes drilled through the boot lid, through which your hardware goes.

Very nice find. The small cups are getting very hard to find. Oh yeh they are for a luggage rack.

Maybe something like this....never looked at mine very closely.

Thanks Guys
To be fair and since this week evil-bay has free listings, I put the bolts on for .99. Ebay listing I'll donate the profits to the BCF. If they make more then $100 I'll start manufacturing them :crazy:
