Lots of nice looking TR3s cross the block on eBay but this one, I think,

I you believe the tale (and I see noting in the pics to belie) it is a really
remarkable example.
NFI of course. If I had a FI in this one it wouldn't be for sale.

Nice example indeed, but I must say it really looks too good to be
true as a "time capsule".
I can not help thinking I have seen this TR3 somewhere before, and if
I had to guess, that paint appears to be pearlessent, not a stock
paint color in 1959. Suspension bushings not perishing in 50 years on
the east coast even if it was in temperature and humidity controlled
storage?
The seller has sold almost a quarter million things on Ebay with a
100% positive rating in the last 2.5 years??
Nope, something is very wrong with this posting.
Just my humble opinion.
Here is a short link to the TR3 on ebay ...
