No Paul, neither the door sill nor the door panel 'scuff plates' were
original to any of the TR3s. They used to be available from MG Mitten and
Amco, I believe. Both companies are long gone now. None of the 'big-3'carry
them either, as far as I know!
Good luck,
Jim

Hi,
Are these 'scuff plates' original? They are shown in two of the pictures
for the following ebay vehicle:

tr4-tr6-tr7-or-spitfire_W0QQitemZ4568842238QQcategoryZ6469QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewIt

In the picture they are on the bottom interior of the doors on both sides of
the car. Who sells them or are they homemade?
I would think this to be quite an improvement to 'scar-ed-up and
scratched-up' paneling.
Thanks, Paul Dorsey
