Restoring a TR3 in Carrollton Texas

[Chuck Murphy]

Hi all,
I am restoring a basket case 1957 TR3 (TS15623LO). Been at it for two years; have most of the chassis done; most of the body done; ready for paint. It has been interesting since I have had to restore almost every component of the car. I found this forum last month and have been reading every post from the last year or so. Wish I had found the forum and its experts two years ago!!!
I am not making a concurs car, but I want every part to be as it was when it was new.
I belong to the local Red RiverTriumph Club and have gotten much advice and many needed parts from club members.
I also have a (late) 1958 TR3A I restored in 1983. A fun car!! Used it to/from work but I am retired now, so have time for another Triumph.
I have not posted any questions or answers up until now. But, will be dong so in the near future.
