When we were setting up originality guidelines for TRA there was input
of random differences in frame color. some were positive finds. I
personally took it as what ever was in the paint gun at the time the
frame was posted for paint went on it . predominately they were Black

Hi all
Motor show cars sometimes had white chassis - I cam across this she
looking at the records at BMIHR Gaydon when I started building the
1958 Earls Court demonstrator (3a) registered 2SMC.
Cars had three ‘standards’ of prep it seems and the records show
‘A/A’, ‘A/B’, ‘A/C’ etc but no one seems to know what that
really meant. I surmised that it might be rolling chassis, display car
and demonstrator car for test use just by looking at the 57 and 58
records and the cars pictured and my car, which had nice chrome bits
everywhere but was also clearly nicely prepped at one time. Other at
Earls Court that year were two shiny white 3a’s and a white rolling
chassis. The red Glasgow and Geneva car Registered 3SMC looks to have
a white chassis from the period B&W pics. Could be all wrong of
course.
The other white chassis cars were from the competitions department
who tended to paint some Chassis white (not all by any means) so that
cracks could be seen easily. This flowed into the TR4 programme, where
each of the four cars alway ran on white chassis frames and still do
today.
Hope this is useful Tony

seems to be true.
But I suspect white slipped through once in awhile because of display
chassis, etc.
I encountered it when I was involved in a concours.
