A rare beast indeed!
I don't know anything about TR Only or it's owners or employees.
I know little about TR5s
I know a few things about TR250.
This car looks like a TR250.
It has US spec (plastic) front running lights.
A ZS carbed car has a pedal shaft running across in front of the battery
box and linkage
to the carbs.   If I remember correctly, a PI car uses a throttle cable.
This car has
the old pedal rod and nothing attached.
On the other hand, it does look like those badges have been there for a
looooong time.

Looks like this car would be a FUN project!
I wish I had the room, time and money.  I have zero for three!
