Car Details as Follows
Reg No. NVS 546
VIN Number. TS34062L
Engine Number. CT66345E
There are some seven MOTs from previous years and the car will be supplied with a new mot from June 2014.
Improvements or areas of work.  The painted wheels need respraying. ( or really nice new chrome wires )                        The boot rack needs re-chroming. Rack and pinion steering would be nice. as steering on these original TR3's is fairly agricultural. The chrome is in generally very good condition with minimal pitting on overriders. The wing mirrors although perfectly useable. showing signs of age. Paintwork is generally very good and polished. however some signs of ageing is evident in minor blemishes.
The current owner is selling because of a back injury which makes it very difficult to exit the car.

Original steering wheel and brace also supplied.
