Darrell, I've taken the liberty of copying  you on this email.  FYI, it 
appears that the TRA judging manual is  incorrect about the location of the 
wiper 
and dash light switches for TR3 and  early TR3A.  The diagram on page IN-21 of 
the PDF version I have (dated  2004) has a note that the dash & wiper switches 
traded places between TR2  and TR3.  It is my belief that this did not happen 
until much later; and  was done in conjunction with the dash light rheostat.  
As I recall, there  was no specific change date for the rheostat, instead it 
seems to have been  fitted as an option for some time and only made standard 
around 1959 or  so.


I can take this question to the TRA Judging School in 07 in Geneva on  Seneca 
Lake in New York during the TRA National Meeting.  This is the time  that 
they are real interested in going over inaccuracies in the Judging Manuals.  
BTW, 
If they get enough people they would like to have a Race Day @ the Glen as  
in Watkins! Way Cool, Huh?
Thanks,
Darrell.
