Tonight at nine on Velocity they are doing a TR3 on the TV show Speed is the new black.
 
Cool...enjoyed watching, thanks for the tip!

Notice they left the inner wings all banged up. Doesn't show when done, but sure looks half a$$ on the camera.
 
Appears to me, that they took a good looking, usable TR3, and made it only good for maybe autocrossing. Ruined a nice paint job, and made something that can't be used on the street. No way to use a top, or sidecurtains.

If I were to put a supercharger on the TRactor motor, it would be a modern Eaton, and not one of those Paxtons ready to swallow some vanes. I went the cam, head shave, 87mm piston and liner, header route which I think is more appropriate.

I didn't like the paint work either. The colors didn't do it for me. I have those aero-screens, and they slide right off so you can just install the regular windscreen. It's no big deal. I switch them around all the time. Yes, you have to remove the wiper arms.
