Hey guys!
In doing my body off restoration... I began taking off what seemed like 60+ years of old oil, grease and dirt off the side of my engine block. What reviled its self is the lettering "TR3" in orange. Looks hand painted to me. I doubt that the factory in England would do such a thing but wondering if you guys have any idea why this might be on there? These cars are like time capsules with a lot of history. I bought the car from the son of the owner (who died 16 years ago from a brain tumor and the car sat in a garage the whole time and has not been running for over 16 years).
