specific engine numbering.

Thanks,
Bob

  Hi Bob,

              Hopefully you can help me.

  I own one of the 3 original TR8's in South Africa. All three are amazingly
in  Pretoria which makes workshopping simpler.

  Mine is TPVDV8AT214261 /HAF/RAG.

  While it is now longer its original colour everything else matches its
Heritage Certificate.

  It was built in July 1980 for shipment to a dealer in Newark NJ but has a
California coded engine number (12E08120).

  Having now got it to concours standard ( last months Gauteng gathering of 54
Triumphs earned it a Gold award and 3rd in class) I am now trying to track
down its provenance .

  Any assistance you can supply will be gratefully received.



  Many Thanks.
