My TR3B has commission number TSF/202-L and engine number TSF/52-E.  As
found in the vehicle and on its BMIHT record.  Not at all unusual to be way
off.  Triumph were more interested in making cars than matching numbers.
 Even with only a few TR3B's made, commission and engine differed by a
significant amount.  I'm not sure there was EVER a TR2-3B with matching
numbers.

A BMIHT factory record is the way to go it seems.  A DMV oughta take that.
