Just wondering if anyone out there has a sidescreen car ashtray they would like to part with at a reasonable cost.

If I can find the one I have, I'll send you a picture and we'll talk. Shipping will be more than the cost of part.

I would be willing to sell you a coffee can and some duct tape for only $10 plus shipping.
To Marvin, who's being really nice here. Those things fetch big bucks in the market places.

I have the original bean bag that came with the car when I got t used in 1964, though I've long since quit smoking. The only thing I miss is crushing the butts on street. You can't do that in an MG.

At the time my TR3A was produced, an ashtray was not available installed or as an option. And why should I care ? I have never smoked. But every time I was taking a gal for a ride and she wanted to smoke, I told her to use the "sidescreen ashtray" ie flick the ashes to the big one outside - over the top of the door, as we were motoring along. I also used to tell them they could manicure their fingernails by hanging their hand oberboard - on the road as we drove.

When I bought my TR3 in the summer of '04, it still had the original ashtray, overflowing with old butts from 1982. I still have a pack of "Senior Service" English Cigarettes I found in the glove box.
Since I had just lost my much beloved mother-in-law to lung cancer, (she was a big smoker), I couldn't get rid of that ashtray fast enough. It's the only original item I've sold from the car, and it sold for $150, back in 2005!
I've never regretted selling that one individual part.
