Gee my TR2-3A bastard child ought to be worth lots of money now  
because it's a one of a kind. Back half is a TR2 front half is a  
TR3A. the car was cut in half behind the driver's seat, frame and  
all, then different car was welded on to it. It is registered as a  
1958 TR3A but I am working on returning it to TR2 configuration.
